Storytelling Collaborations
For a number of years I have been working with alongside storytellers working in Scotland to create storytelling and music collaborative performances. These include Svend-Erik Engh, Alice Fernbank, Claire Hewitt, and Shona Cowie. Over time I became increasingly interested and involved in the storytelling, and now incoporate this into my own performances. Svend and I have created and performed three shows together at the Edinburgh Fringe and Scottish International Storytelling Festival: Wolves Within, Walk the Oars and Three Rivers Rising (with Claire Hewitt). And most recently, With the Devil's Assistance, a storytelling show by Shona Cowie and myself, was warmly received bu audiences and reviewers at the Edinburgh Fringe 2022.
