StoryTelling Corner held the first evening of 2020 at Temperance Cafe, Leamington Spa, with a real divergent programme of Words and Music. We began by welcoming the performers, old friends and new faces.
Our Charity of Choice was the Ifakara Bakery project which raises funds to buy bread for the children in Tanzania. It was proposed by Sharon Bradshaw and received £36 from StoryTelling Corner. https://www.ibpfreebread.com/
#1 Ernie Boxall brought the 'Fox and the Mice' to STC. It is an adaption of the story 'Coyote and the Mice' from Native American stories.
#2. Rhys Clarke entertained us with his own play 'Thompson and Sons' which we are hoping we can expand in the future.
#3 Jim Berreen a first time visitor to STC, Jim brought two short, but according to the feedback, memorable stories from his collection of 'darkish' tales. There was humour in the telling.
#4 Justin Tai-Sen-Choy, another first visitor, Justin displayed the art of weaving his stories of Disney World characters into a captivating performance for a new audience.
#5 One of our main event guests was Sharon Bradshaw an independently published Author, Poet, and Speaker, skilled in the art of tales from the Dark Ages. Vikings and Saxon lore run through Sharon's veins.
#6 Our evening was brought to a pulse-racing set from the brilliant Stephen Boyer, Mike Cox and Robert Cooper. If you want to mix music and stories or music and poetry, these are the go-to guys. We joined them on a journey from Montana to Alaska via Alum Rock, Birmingham and left the building still tapping our feet to their finale.
