ADULT PERFORMANCES
Storytelling has traditionally always been an entertainment for adults every bit as much as for children. There is a well established network of venues for adult storytelling events - clubs, pubs, arts venues, festivals, candle-lit cafes, church and village halls, manor houses, outdoor camp fires and story walks... Indeed the more unusual the venue, the more atmospheric and memorable the experience.
Adult storytelling events where Sophie tells stories include:
-
theatre / arts centres;
- storytelling clubs and festivals;
- museums and libraries;
- corporate events;
- family celebrations (weddings, birthday parties, christenings);
- special events hosted at pubs, restaurants and cafes;
- festivals (literature and arts festivals, music festivals, folk gatherings);
- the WI, social clubs, writer's groups,
-
hospitals, and mental health projects;
- care homes / residential homes and lunch clubs for the elderly.
Sophie often gets asked to put together a set of stories for specific themes, but she also has a number of performance storytelling shows. These are listed below. Please click on the heading for full details.
