The Travelling Talesman presents: GIANTS! \ The Art House \ 18/4/15 7.30pm

The Travelling Talesman is a spoken word narrative performer of myths, legends, folktales and the occasional poem - in short, a Storyteller!

His energetic and engaging performance is certain to entertain and inspire you, leaving you with new tales to share and having learnt new things about myths and legends you thought you already knew!

The Travelling Talesman has toured the country from Penzance to York, for feasts, festivals and fun since the early nineties with tales of Norse Gods, Celtic mysteries, clever girls and dragon Slayers, medieval mayhem, giants, goblins and halloween horrors.

He enjoys drawing from a variety of cultures for his tales, , chasing down unusual variations on folk tales and researching, learning or creating new adventures!

He returns to The Art House for the third time, so let previous audiences tell you what they thought:

The stories were excellently told and very entertaining.
