Thank you for inviting me to share Troubled Waters last night at the Village Storytelling Festival and for the full and friendly audience that came out!

I also delivered a new workshop I’ve been designing: ‘Telling Stories for Troubled Times’ exploring the living questions in traditional oral stories in response to the following:

“Tradition is a set of solutions for which we have forgotten the problems. Throw away the solution and you get the problem back.” - Donald Kingsbury

“What contemporary issue has not always been a contemporary issue” - Hugh Lupton

My cup is full of connections, questions and gratitude that I get to share this work and bring voice and attention to this steadfast, shifting, generous and mysterious body of stories.

Glasgow is the friendliest city, I love it here and can’t wait to return to Scotland in August for my Edinburgh Fringe run of Troubled Waters at - tickets are now on sale!

Next stops for the tour: Bridport 11th, Exeter 12th, and Helston 13th June. All ticket links in my bio ✨ Hope to see you at a show along the way ✨

20 shows into a 50-show tour, and Fishtail Woman’s story - The Drowned Bell - teaches me new things every night.

A short snippet from Troubled Waters - a show woven from myth, rivers, stories from oral traditions, and questions of how we live through troubled times together.

So far the tour has taken me into theatres, festivals, village halls, pubs, community spaces, and conversations I’ll carry with me for a long time.

Thank you to everyone who’s come, listened, shared reflections afterwards, or helped bring the show to life.

Still to come:
4 June | GLASGOW — Village Storytelling Festival
11 June | BRIDPORT — Lyric Theatre
12 June | EXETER — Cygnet Theatre
13 June | HELSTON — Trevow Theatre
19 June | MALMESBURY — Rivers Festival
26 June | PENYGROES — Henbant Permaculture
4 July | SWINDON — Forging Fantastical
7–30 Aug | EDINBURGH FRINGE — Scottish Storytelling Centre

If the show is passing near you, I’d love to welcome you there.

And if you’ve already seen the show, please tell your water-loving friends.
