Coming up in March

Well Storytellers, we are back to business learning, experimenting, crafting stories; building confidence and repertoire.

Our February gathering was well attended, and it was wonderful to welcome new faces.

As well as practicing and trying out stories we had the chance to listen to a dramatised podcast being developed by Cam.  Cam has formed a production company with Andrew,  his creative colleague. You can follow their progress HERE.

We have a few poddies in our story family and we're learning from them and hoping, if the stars align, to make a series of our own.

Our other storyteller/podcaster is Matt McArthur. Matt has a particular interest in the human activity in Antarctica and his excellent work has been recognised with multiple awards HERE

We are back in the Newport HUB on March 20. Please join us.

World Storytelling Day

WSD is celebrated globally and there are many ways you can participate

Our friends in Singapore and the Federation of Asian Story Tellers  are setting up an Online Story Swap. They invite you to ...

'Join us and tell or listen to stories of seafaring folk, of brave, or foolhardy voyages to far-off lands. Or perhaps travel through your imagination to see what voyage this theme inspires.

Friday 20 March 2020, 7.30pm Singapore Time

This STORY SWAP is FREE and is open to anyone! You don't need to be a member of FEAST.

You can offer to tell a story, or simply sit back and enjoy your fellow storytellers as we swap stories.

We're looking for tellers to share a story on the theme of Voyages. (Maximum of 9 minutes)

When you register for the session, you will be sent a link so that you can join in. The link will ask you to download the ZOOM software which is very easy to install and use.

If you would like to tell a story or have any questions about the software, please contact the Swap Host - Roger Jenkins at rogerstoryteller@gmail.com

If you are chosen to tell a story, please make sure you can tell it in 9 MINUTES or less! We want to give as many tellers as possible a chance to share a story.
