A life for a story - A story for a life
This father and daughter duo bring to life a tale of thievery, giants, ghosts; and many a close brush with death. How much is a story worth? A reworking of a tale found across the British Isles in the 1800’s, Colin and Iris bring a contemporary edge to these traditional tales with their unique style.
Doors 6.30pm Cafe and bar open.
