Art, Storytelling & Drama

The traditional local-ish story of Assipattle and the Giant Stoorworm for all those bairns from 4 years old up until the 14 year olds with a dragon to be built and all kinds of fun props and stories and drama games with roles as horses and fishes and maidens and simple young men who can solve complicated problems and Kings and sparky Princesses and stinky scary scaly Dragons…

Three days in the woods with nature and creative activities and a final performance.

Okay - it is self promotion - but for a fun three day event for 4-14 year olds in the fabulous Borgie Forest Cabins.

Come and work with Skerray artist Meg Telfer, multi-disciplinary community artist from Portskerra Alex Patience, along with Sean Wyllie of Farr Edge.
