Christine Willison
Christine has been telling stories professionally for over twenty years in schools arts centres, museums stately homes and at festivals all over the world. Her repertoire of traditional and contemporary stories, myths and legends includes Celtic tales and is drawn from her family’s roots in Ireland and Eastern Europe, from Wales where she lives and from her travels around the world.
She is the organiser of this storytelling space.
Pauline Cordiner is a storyteller from the fishing and farming traditions of the north east of Scotland, an area which was once inhabited by the celtic tribes known as the the Picts. Pauline doesn't limit herself to Pictish tales however, and enjoys telling a variety of traditional fairy tales, creation myths and the occasional home-grown tale."
Jane Flood
Having travelled to the four corners of the world, Jane Flood has a word hoard of over 300 traditional stories (most of which she has forgotten!) She has been a storyteller for so long now that she is a little unsure about what is truth and what is life. Having performed in a thousand strange and alarming settings her sense of humour and brilliant image making have ensured that she is still able to eat, drink and stay happy.
Guto Dafis
Storyteller, melodeon-player and singer Guto Dafis tells traditional tales of the supernatural from the Celtic lands and elsewhere in Europe with energy, humour and wonder. He has performed for children and adults in schools, festivals, museums, gardens and parks.
