The Art of Storytelling

Storytelling is woven into the very fabric of human history. It stretches back long before written words, perhaps even sparking alongside the development of language itself. Some of the earliest glimpses we have are prehistoric cave paintings until oral traditions then became the cornerstone of storytelling for millennia. Skilled storytellers, perhaps shamans or elders, would hold the power to weave tales of history, heroes, and the natural world. These stories weren't just entertainment; they were a way to pass down knowledge, culture, and values from generation to generation.

This class encompasses everything involved in storytelling. From learning a story in depth, to retelling a story from memory, to learning performance and voice skills - children will explore old and new stories from traditional English folklore. They will explore the folk tales of the forest and learn about the forgotten stories of magic that inspired some of today's most popular tales. They will also have the opportunity to explore 21st century ways of recording their stories - using film and animation.
