Surrey Storytellers is a group that promotes the art of storytelling for Adults, Young People and Children throughout the County of Surrey, in England.
Storytelling is one of the oldest forms of entertainment in the world and is also the way societies hand down their histories and values from one generation to the next. It is currently enjoying a revival thanks to a renewed interest in the folk arts which also include music, song and dance. There are lots of storytelling circles and events run across the UK, at which everyone is welcome – either to listen or tell a story of their own.
Our next evening is 24th September @19.30
Step out from the Tabard Inn with Alastair K Daniel on the road to Canterbury, keeping company with cockerels, cuckolds and crusaders.
Join him and accompany a motley group of pilgrims on their journey from the Tabard Inn to the tomb of St Thomas Becket in Canterbury, passing the time with some of their stories in an evening of the raucous, romantic and ribald.
