Storytelling: Fairytales and Fables
Back for another season of interactive storytelling, Michele O’Brien - Storyteller, Actor and Educator will be co-creating and co-exploring traditional and modern stories that allow pre-school children to initiate story sessions.

Come and listen to a story told by Michele from The Elves and the Shoemaker to Pinocchio. Then have fun acting out your favourite character, through drama, dance and music. Using different spaces in the Lighthouse gives the project lots of variety and an introduction to working in creative spaces.

Come and find out what can happen at a ‘not your ordinary’ Storytelling session when your parents get involved as well.

Michele uses the acclaimed Vivian Gussin Paley technique ‘The Story Square’, which allows children to tell their own stories too.

One Mum said “We’ve had a lovely time” Her and her child had just had a great session in the studio, where the seats were pushed back, a shadow screen became the storyboard, and Fishy Tales became the order of the day.

The stories created by your child will be showcased as part of the inaugural Poole Literary Festival in October.

Tickets: £5 for one adult and one child. Children under 1 go free.
Age Guidance: Under 4
Running Time: 60 mins
