Di and Stuart, of Countrywide Cottages are hosting an afternoon of storytelling by their friend, Niki na Meadhra. Niki has worked as a theatre practitioner, storyteller and community artist in a broad range of settings for over 30 years. She has told stories to audiences ranging from intimate garden parties to 3000 people at Dallas Brooks Hall.
This year Niki has been invited to tell stories in Ireland, at the Sneem International Storytelling Festival, in Kerry. This has grown into a tour, including concerts in Cork, and Waterford. When Niki was last in Ireland in 2008, she kissed the Blarney Stone and hasn’t been able to stop telling stories since! She has a passion to fan the flames of the oral tradition and would love to seed storytelling events and foster storytelling skills in communities wherever she travels!
There are limited tickets for this magical event. 100% of the proceeds will go to Niki to help her extend her storytelling tour of Ireland. Dinny Goonan will be selling his amazing wine; afternoon tea will be provided and there will be a raffle of some lovely local goods. If tickets are sold out when you try to book, please leave your details on the waiting list or be in touch with Di and Stuart, as they then plan to arrange a second gig the following afternoon.
