Review:
We’re All Storytellers’ – folk tales told right
Full of the archetypes of classic folktales we know and cherish: forbidden love, happy endings and a deep connection to our joint human experiences. We’re All Storytellers brings all this in spades.
I found it a well-crafted blend of prose, acoustic songs and imaginative performance that is suitable for all ages, and with the titular claim that we are, indeed, all storytellers, Samantha (the fabulous Fabulist) brings a grounded, familiar structure – one which allows audiences to settle in and engage with the stories on their own terms.
It’s refreshing to see a piece that returns to the roots of storytelling with such sincerity. We’re All Storytellers draws strength from tradition, offering a thoughtful, heartfelt reminder of why these stories endure in our hearts and how sharing them remains a vital part of human connection.
Suitable for all ages.
