You can make anyone scared in the dark, but making them scared in the sunlight takes skill. My new online course starts next week: 'The Ghost of a Chance' runs over four Thursday evenings on Zoom, 5th December - 9th January

I’m so looking forward to going to Morocco next year, on a quest to the Sahara desert. So many stories I hold belong to desert landscapes… like the story of petrified lightning, which is the very first glass. ‘A Sky Full of Stories’ is 25th January - 1st February 2025.

The traditional stories I tell are held in a beautiful labyrinthine structure, where one story flows into another and then into another... INTO THE LABYRINTH is happening on Wednesdays at 7.30pm UK time across four weeks in November. Join Dr Simon Heywood live on Zoom.

Last year we finished recording the whole of the Menasseh cycle, just one of the twelve cycles I learned from my Bubbe. Since then Simon has been taking a very close look at the way in which a large story cycle in the Drut'syla tradition works. INTO THE LABYRINTH starts 6th Nov.

When I came round from my hip operation, the Consultant said, "Have you any questions?" And the burning question in my heart was, "How soon can I get on a camel?" So I am thrilled that our magical Morocco adventure is happening 25th January - 1st February 2025...

Working with techniques from my precious Drut'syla family tradition, stories become like memories that you have walked. That bleeds into your telling and then there’s an authenticity and a reality about the way you tell...... INTO THE LABYRINTH starts Wednesday 6th November.

LAST CHANCE to book in for the Glass Palace this weekend! When Eben the Stonemason saves a lost baby from a river, and finds her a new home, he little suspects that it will lead him to the stars and beyond....

The Glass Palace of the Moon-Maid is a magical wonder-tale spanning this world and the beyond, a tale of stars and comets and moons, life and death, love and betrayal, and, of course, the occasional goat. My next Tellers, Tales, Tradition weekend is 16th-18th August... 🌛🌛🌛

WORD DANCING starts Monday... With the growing popularity of spoken word events, writers are often required to TELL their work. Similarly, storytellers often want to develop their tales in a written form. But to write and to tell are two very different art forms....

DRAGONS BREATH is this Sunday 4th August at 10.30am UK time. In July we heard wild tales and memories inspired by Tractors, Suitcases, Flamingos, Underpants, Padlocks, and Beer Tankards… I can't wait to hear the tales this time around!
