Ø True Stories!
Ø A play by Art Lot guest Miranda Walker!
Ø Living a passionate life ...
It’s all me these days; me ... me ... me!
Yes, even the Art Lot -- for the next show was recorded at the True Stories Told Live event at the Star Anise Art Cafe recently.
Organised by the wonderfully-efficient Cynthia Whelan, this event featured Fiona Eadie, George Krasker, Jo Woolley, Josie Felce and none other than me ... me ... me!
And we even had musical accompaniment by accordionist Trevor Smith.
As I say, it was recorded at Star Anise, so please persevere with the rather poor quality sound recording. Apologies must go to George, because in the middle of this talk there was a terrifically heavy downpour of rain which beat so loudly on the room’s skylight that the recording was unusable. Apologies as well to Jo and Trevor as I had to cut some of Jo's story and most of Trevor's music to fit into Art Lot’s hour.
Please persevere: the stories are all fascinating ... and, of course, true.
After the stories, there is a radio play by Art Lot guest Miranda Walker ... it's really good ... I don't want to spoil it ... just listen in!
The next Live Storytelling is on June 4 ... if you're interested in telling your story, then telephone Cynthia on 07754472661 or 01452 814233.
Fiona, whose poignantly funny story you will hear in this Art Lot, is leading a Storytelling Walk with musician Ruth Liengaard as part of the Nailsworth Festival on Sunday May 22nd .
Starting from Ruskin Mill at 230, it involves a gentle walk of about two hours with story-telling breaks along the way. The price is £3 for adults and £1.50 for children.
You will need to book by phoning Ruskin Mill on (01453) 837537.

She is a writer and artist, and dreams are a key source of creative inspiration. Honouring the cycle of the year and its seasons also has a deep influence, and looking after a garden including growing vegetables nourishes this connection.
She facilitates creative workshops as well as practising as a massage therapist. She is a founding member of the U.K. Spiritual Crisis Network.
