STORYTELLING
The hunger for narrative is a basic human instinct. Stories help us make sense of the world and give structure and order to our everyday lives. They tell us what is important, what is not and give us a way to connect people's individual experiences to those of others. They help us identify with universal truths. Stories are a way we put a human face on the world, which is something we have always needed and valued. Some of our most profound decisions are made emotionally, not rationally. Stories tap into emotions better than anything else.
If you want to know more, come and

THE RETURN of the SHAGGYDOG
Over 2 years ago we were forced to suspend all storytelling activity, but now we're back!
For the time being we are running a restricted programme until our audience gets used to our return.
We
will continue to tell stories at 8pm on the last Friday of every month
but there will be no professional tellers for the time being. It will a
full evening of STORIES from the FLOOR. The good news is that there
will be no admission charge!
"Tell me a fact and I'll learn. Tell me a truth and I'll believe. But tell me a story and it will live in my heart forever."
The Shaggy Dog Storytellers provide storytellers for any performance or workshop.
