EPIC IN AN EVENING: THE ARABIAN NIGHTS

To celebrate National Storytelling Week every year we combine forces and tell an epic with as many storytellers as we can muster. We have done Gilgamesh, we have done Herakles [Life and Labours], we have done the Middle High German version of Tristan und Isold, we have done The Life of Loki, and this time we are presenting some tastefully chosen crumbs from the vast banquet that is known as The Arabian Nights' Entertainments or The Thousand and One Nights.

Thursday, February 20th, at The Elm Tree, as usual -- arrive early, so we can start bang on 7.30, because, if we overrun, someone may want to cut off our heads...!
