One of our lovely audience members shared this with us and we wanted you to know about it. It's in That There London but I believe there are buses, trains and roads that go that way. Let us know what you thought if you get to visit it.

Take your family on a magical adventure in a new interactive exhibition! Explore enchanted lands, magical creatures, iconic characters and timeless tales,

Ohhh it was well worth the trip through the murky mists of Matlock to the Duke William last night. There we were cocooned in the warmth of stories- tales of trees and fools, duplicitous old ladies, the devil’s grandmother and more. We even found out why the jellyfish has no bones- who knew???
We’ll do it all again on Wednesday February 25th- pop it in Your diary now.

Stop press - CANCELLATION
Dear friends and story lovers, we are so sorry to let you know that, with heavy hearts, we are cancelling this week's storytelling cafe. Poor Charlotte Mooney has been struck by the horrible winter flu.

You will be able to carry your tickets over, if you just drop us a line to let us know you're doing that. Or, if you would like a refund, please drop us a line about that too.

We are so sorry not to see you this week, but hope you'll join us on the first Friday in February.

In the meantime, a happy, hopeful and cheery new year to all.

What a fabulous night, with wonderful stories of Dionysus from Amelia Ace Armande, supported so well by Andy Gray and his mandolin.
Thanks to all who came and joined the fun!
