Devon Oral Storytellers

The Plough Storytelling Circle is back! We have a new time - the first Thursday evening of every month - and a new venue - the beautiful St Anne's Chapel in Barnstaple.
We are a lively and supportive forum for the telling of stories, whether those are folk tales, mythology, modern or personal stories, all told in the traditional way - from memory.
We welcome anyone and everyone to tell a tale or just to listen and we also enjoy occasional poetry and music, as long as it is story-based.
So whether you are new to storytelling or have been doing it for years, please come and join us for an evening of wonders. (Incredible value too at £2 including refreshments!)
Book online at www.theploughartscentre.org.uk or by phoning the Box Office on 01805 624624 or on the door.

Join a small, friendly group workshop led by Katy Cawkwell to work on a story that you'd like to tell. Sessions happen monthly Sept, Nov, Dec, but there is no need to commit to more than one at a time. Katy runs a series of fun, stretching exercises and everyone works at their own pace. There is time to hear snippets of story from everyone and 2 people tell a full story with feedback at the end in rotation.

Clyst St George Village Hall (EX3 0RE) has free parking and is on the number 57 bus route from Exeter-Exmouth. Nearest stop St George & Dragon Hotel (8 mins walk from venue).

Please contact Katy for more details or any questions - katycawkwell@gmail.com. Cost is £25 or £20pp - pay what you can.

You can sign up for a place at www.katycawkwell.co.uk/shop or contact Katy about alternative means of payment.

Exeter Storyclub is on the second Wednesday of the month (save in exceptional circumstances and sometimes we don't meet in July or August if everyone is away). A supportive gathering to try out new pieces or simply to relax and listen to spoken storytelling at its best.
We meet at The Cowick Barton, 121 Cowick Ln, Exeter EX2 9HF

There is a 15 minute maximum length for stories/music and if anyone goes over that, they will incur the Harmonica of Doom! :) As we love to get everyone’s oral stories in. Two-parters can be arranged, just let us know! All stories must be from memory. No reading aloud allowed. Support the oral tradition :) . All welcome.

• What to bring
Yourself, a pair of listening ears and an open imagination.
There will be a hat for donations
