Beckenham Storytelling Circle is a free event. Stories should be told and not read and can be upto 10 minutes long so come along and tell us a story and improve your storytelling skills. Or you are welcome to come along and listen. What is storytelling? One of the world’s oldest art forms, storytelling has been at the heart of human expression for as long as we have been able to talk. From the little, everyday "you’ll never guess what happened to me on the bus today" story to the epic childhood tales that shape our lives, listening to and telling stories is a part of all of us.
At our Christmas reunion we had 8 storytellers who offered us stories; of Unrequited love and a falcon, of Magic apples and pears causing a nose to grow enormously, of A quiet night at the pub until 2 horsemen arrive. of A man eating blood bay horse and of, A child's questioning of why war continues. and many more.
Expect news of a spring meeting in the new year.
Don't forget the excellent Storynight at Torriano with Nell Phoenix. See the link in Stuff and Nonsense.
