A chilling and thrilling evening's entertainment is in store in Dorset village halls.

The Beast in Me will tour to West Stafford, Child Okeford and Drimpton.

The Devil's Violin production, a combination of music, sound and story, will be on the road courtesy of Artsreach.

The Beast In Me features a masterfully woven tapestry of stories from long ago about our perception of beauty and the value of kindness. Epic narratives are evocatively brought to life by master storyteller, Daniel Morden, with sublime stringed accompaniment from virtuoso musicians Sarah Moody (cello) and Oliver Wilson-Dickson (violin), who Artsreach audiences will know well from previous appearances with Welsh folk groups Mabon and ALAW.

See the show in West Stafford (07968 633834) on Friday February 18, Child Okeford (01258 861621) on Saturday February 19 and Drimpton (01308 867617) on Sunday February 20. Further information and tickets are available online at www.artsreach.co.uk
