Storytelling

We work with artists and community groups to imagine and create new adventures. One of the ways we love to do this is by sharing and inventing stories.

Terrestrial’s Director Tom Spencer often uses storytelling within our projects: from small groups developing their own tales over many months to big one-off performances.

“We have been loving your storytelling sessions! The children have collaborated so happily and taken ownership of their stories with huge enthusiasm. The whole class has entered into the spirit of storytelling, from the children usually least engaged in English lessons to the children who love reading and writing.  Everyone has thrown themselves into the sessions and it is the highlight of our Fridays! The behaviour of the children has been fantastic because they are all enjoying themselves and drawn into the stories so well by you.”

“Tom the storyteller was brilliant!  All he brought with him was a saucepan, himself and his creative imagination, and he had the children's attention from the moment he began.  His kind, warm nature made the children feel all their ideas were welcomed.”
