We're currently meeting in the Dusty Miller in Mytholmroyd.
Ample free parking is available nearby in the Mytholmroyd station car park.
Myths and legends, folktales and fables, fairytales and factual tales are all brought to life during our monthly storytelling evenings.
This is live entertainment like no other!
Each month we either:
- welcome guest storytellers who bring their own magic to the room, or
- give anyone the opportunity to tell a short story at our popular Stories from the Floor sessions - you're welcome to bring a story to tell or come and enjoy listening to the variety of storytellers.

Guest Storyteller
Amelia Ace Armande
8:00pm (doors 7:30)
Suggested donation £5 per person, cards and cash welcome.
Visiting storyteller Amelia is bringing their feisty Dionysian tales to the club.
On the side of a mountain called Meros, a young girl is dancing. She is a sacred dancer to the gods, and life on the mountain is all she has ever known. But her journey will take her far from home, across the sea, and deep into the story of Dionysus, the god of wine, revelry, dance and divine madness.
Unstopper the life story of the Greek God of the Vine with non-binary storyteller Amelia Ace Armande, pouring out a heady tale of ecstasy, madness, queer love and resurrection.
