When people told themselves their past with stories, explained their present with stories, foretold their future with stories, the best place by the fire was kept for the Storyteller.
In this extraordinary, intimate one man show, award winning Storyteller Brice Stratford takes you on a blistering, unexpected, unpredictable tour of Norse wisdom, myths and legends. In doing so he unravels the importance of stories, the development of stories, and the place they still hold in our culture today.
“little short of revelatory” (The Observer)
“Brice’s delivery is mellifluously measured and warm. He knows how to make you lean in a little closer, and has mastered the emphatic pause, pint in hand or not – a raconteur of old.”
(Theatre Bubble)
“a powerful piece of theatre … everyone should see this” (The Student Newspaper)

Brice Stratford
Award winning storyteller Brice Stratford established the Owle Schreame theatre compay in Cambridge in 2008, specifically to explore original stage practice and to evolve historical techniques and approaches, to recreate for modern audiences the rough, visceral, interactive experience of historical storytelling and theatrical performance. A stalwart of the festival circuit, especially at VAULT and the Edinburgh fringe, he was the inaugural storyteller of the Wessex Literary Festival, and has authored two books of tales: "New Forest Myths and Folklore" and "Anglo-Saxon Myths: The Struggle for the Seven Kingdoms", published by the History Press and Batsford Books respectively.
