An evening of Traditional Storyelling for Adults, at Lock 91.
Up on a high windy mountainside sits a cailleach, a hag whose days as a powerful goddess are long behind her (if they were ever quite as impressive as she remembers).
The world is changing. She who once held such sway over the weather has been usurped by humans.
And a retired climate goddess needs a hobby - so why not take up kidnapping? But the only ones she seems to be able to reach are the different ones, the ones who find it hard to ignore her nighttime calls.
The changelings.
Adderstone are Cath Heinemeyer and Gemma McDermott, musicians and storytellers with a leftfield take on life, love and climate.
PLUS stories in the second half from Lara McClure -
How do you find a cloak of invisibility in your wardrobe?
Do seven league boots recalibrate to seven nautical leagues when you wear them at sea?
Could Aladdin's lamp actually be lit without harming the genie inside it?
York-based storyteller Lara McClure explores some conundra associated with magical ephemera and their logistical deployment.
It's important to be realistic about these things, isn't it?!

An evening of Traditional Storyelling for Adults, at Lock 91.
Doors 7pm for a 7.30pm start, finish 10pm.
Breaks included, drinks downstairs, and a raffle!
