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.

Catherine Chadwick tells
The Hostages of Asgard
When the Aesir and Vanir gods declared peace between them after the hostilities, they exchanged hostages. The Vanir sent Njordr and his children Freyr and Freyja to live with the Aesir in Asgard. These three provide us with stories of an unexpected marriage, obsession with a beautiful giantess and the attainment of an incomparable golden necklace.
Catherine Chadwick is a member of Surrey Storytellers and has been telling stories for some 10 years. She has told stories in libraries, churches, restaurants and for fundraisers.
Remember this is on the 4th Friday of the month as usual, but May has five Fridays!
