BE transported by mythic stories and songs about seabirds with a touring Artsreach show.
Shearwater will be at Wootton Fitzpaine Village Hall on Friday, January 29 and Durlston Castle, Swanage, on Saturday January 30.
The stories reveal a world of beauty and of loss, of longing and of timeless truth, all told through personal and mythic stories and songs.
It gracefully balances the heartfelt and the humorous, never losing its footing but letting an audience know they are on the edge...
In 1969, pioneering storyteller Malcolm Green spent three months on a small, uninhabited island off the coast of Iceland studying huge colonies of seabirds.
His experiences there form the frame into which many different journeys are woven: from the extraordinary life of the shearwater to a young man's coming of age and the transformation of the gull-woman.
Now, with the accompaniment of extraordinary musician and entertainer Tim Dalling from The New Rope String Band, Malcolm’s stories and experiences are vividly brought to life.
Call 01297 560948 for tickets to the Wootton Fitzpaine show or 01929 424443 for tickets to the Durlston Castle show. Both performances are at 7.30pm.
