“There's always room for a story that can transport people to another place.”
- J.K. Rowling
"The storytelling was excellent, the children were utterly delighted."
The National Literacy Trust
I love sharing tales from my extensive repertoire, whether traditional or new to families and adults, either indoors or open air at festivals, fairs, fetes, museums, family days, charity events, libraries; anywhere a story needs to be told.
Whether you are an individual, event organiser, charity or corporate organisation, I can offer bespoke interactive storytelling for your event and I am always happy to find stories that match your theme. Come rain or shine, it's wonderful to have storytelling as part of the line up.
My stories are always interactive and suitable for all ages and sometimes I'm assisted by a whole host of puppet friends.
I also have family storytelling shows perfect for venues and festivals.
For details
You can catch me monthly at The Cliffs Pavilion, Southend on Sea, where I'm the resident storyteller.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for attending our Family Fun Days, we absolutely loved the bear hunt story telling through the woods, it went down really well with the families.
Alternative Lowestoft
Festival
Your stories were wonderful and so many people were completely engrossed in them, whether they were children on picnic blankets, parents on benches or passers-by who stopped in their tracks. You really helped us to bring the arts to people who may not go out to seek it!
