January Club Night

2012-01-21T12:16:00.001Z

Club Night

Graham gave a classic tale his own inimitable treatment and as a result had us laughing at the antics of: a mean farmer, a traveling musician, a frisky cow and a good pair of boots. I shall never hear the sound of baked beans leaving the tin without remembering that foot and the boots!

Mads told a tale of the frozen North with foxy tips on how to hijack a sleigh full of fish.

Suzanne told an Australian tale that was new to me, about how water rat first discovered fire when his teeth struck stone as he was reluctantly doing home improvements for the wife (he was burrowing).

Mike was on top form and told a tale of feuding families from Iceland. - Two key memories: the attack and beheading of the snowman and the murder with an icicle (I am sure Agatha Christie picked up on that one!)

Maria showed us her shepherds crook of Prius wood from the Med. She then told us a charming tale of a shepherd and his thawing under the love of a good woman.

Pete laboured bravely, and to great effect against a tide of raucous audience commentary. Any tale that contains all those juicy Nordic words gets my vote: Ginnungagap, Muspellheim and Audumla being just three.

Taprisha rounded the evening off with a tale of the Norse Gods and the theft of the apples of youth. This was a delightful rendition, with beautiful matching of word and gesture.

Taprisha Recorded this story on Radio Solent 18 April 2011

8.00 Wednesday the 20th April at the Elm Tree

2011-04-16T18:27:00.000+01:00

Tricksters, characters both foolish and wise appear in many guises; Shakespeare's fools, Native American's Raven, Southern US's Br'er Rabbit and Turkish Nasreddin Hodja, for example. In societies where the bald truth might loose you your life, stories with oblique messages and foolish characters can escape censorship.

But like the political joke or cartoon of today they can be powerful as well as humorous.

Here are some ancient Hodja stories from Turkey

The King's Son

Elm Tree Barn, Great Venue!

2011-02-18T09:03:00.005Z

I met a couple of youthful and enthusiastic story listeners at the Elm Tree. They had been trailing the “Bards" in this area for a good few years. "What a perfect space for stories this barn is," they said. Yep! And, though pretty full last Wednesday, there's still even more room for more folks to come and enjoy the tales. Next month, lads, will be packed with high adventure and "Man against the Elements type stuff". Buy a pint at the bar and come in hear a rollicking old yarn.
There's always lots of laughs at a story-night too.
Last Wednesday.....well! definitely leave your children at home for Elm Tree nights......adults have stories to share with each other that children oughtn’t to know or be worrying their little heads about, especially when it comes to love and lust!!.......................
Treat a friend next month..share an evening with a difference.

Jill Barr had an Irish dad who used to tell stories to lighten the mood after he’d lectured his children on the seriousness of life. She loves stories that feature the silly, the useless and the utterly frivolous and wants to share the craic with you.

King of Ireland’s Son
The Red House Museum on Sat 21st August

Delightful and spellbinding….
...
I really enjoyed the story and would like to go to others in the future.
...
Excellent, thank you very much for an enjoyable morning.
...
I think the festival is a great idea. It was wonderful to sit next to my children who were completely enraptured by the performance.
...
I had a wonderful time. Arrived early and had an early introduction to the storytellers – very friendly and welcoming. Memorable event as even the miserable weather was woven into the story. If there were any hitches, they were covered up beautifully ! Hope to come back with a couple of youngsters next year.
...
I did not get it at the end but it was good at the start.
...
Absolutely fantastic!
...
My family enjoyed this event
...
It was lovely to just sit and listen for an hour.

Magical.

King of Ireland's Son

2010-08-12T10:58:00.002+01:00

Dear all

I just wanted to write and thank you for a wonderful evening at Steamer Point. I came with my two children aged 8 and 5. We all loved the evening and sitting around the campfire was really enchanting. I wanted to email as we rushed off without expressing our appreciation as we were worried about getting lost in the woods. We live in Oxford and had never been to Steamer Point before. We very much appreciated the Irish theme. My husband is from Co. Mayo and son's godmother is called Fidelma! We also wondered whether we might hear about Queen Méabh of Connacht (after whom my 8 year old daughter is named), but perhaps she might make an appearance next time! Also, the children very much appreciated the flapjacks, especially as they were still warm.

Thanks once again for a very memorable and magical evening.

Best wishes

Sarah, Méabh and Huw Lally

King of Ireland's Son

First collaborative performance from the New Forest Storytellers last night around a fire in the fading twilight at Steamer point Nature Reserve. Excellent hosts, audience and weather, and even a participating dog.

For those who might have not come across the story before or who were there last night but slipped into the land of dreams due to a superfluity of biscuits & cosiness. Here is a rough outline of the plot:

A king, two queens, two sons, an old man, an enchanter one beautiful daughter, two ugly sisters, the oldest woman in Ireland, another king in the mist, a blacksmith, robbers, a giant and two hags. All of whom have tasks to complete, usually in sets of threes, with the following: a fawn, a red horse, fifty cows, fifty calves, a bear, a hound, a hawk, a faithful steed, a sleight red steed, goats, a swan, a falcon, an eel, a crane and a wolf. They have to find or use: a sword of light, shoes of swiftness, a crystal egg, a bone ladder, the ring of youth and a bottomless well. After a lot of wondering and wandering hither and thither over ancient Ireland it all ends happily.

Watch this space for next performance of this epic tale.

July's Third Wednesday.

2010-07-25T15:12:00.003+01:00

It was a great Wednesday evening at the Elm Tree in Ringwood, probably our most successful get-together yet. With storytelling regulars; Taprisha, Madeleine Grantham, Pete Gritton & some fantastic guests; Mike Rogers, Lulu Stevens, Coco P & Mike O'Leary.

I particularly liked Mike O'Leary's story; slipping seamlessly from an anecdotal chat about a local
archaeological burial site into a gripping haunting ghost tale. Also, Coco P, on his first visit to NFST who told a great tale, which introduced us to his family and childhood world of Trinidad. Lulu told a lovely story of the Donkey's Scented Tail & Mike Rogers told of that famous Englishman, Mr Wadyasay.

Don't miss next month's Third Wednesday!

Elm Tree - Report

2010-06-21T23:21:00.002+01:00

There was an enjoyable and fascinating storytelling session at the Elm Tree last Wednesday to launch the New Forest Storytellers' new venue for their monthly outing.

Regular storytellers were joined by guests to cast their lines around the evening's theme of Tales of the Sea.

Among the evening's tales were a lively and very funny telling of Jonnah and the Whale by Jill Barr.
Taprisha told a haunting tale about the Silkies, the seal people, or mermaids, who inhabit the waters around Jersey.
Pete Gritton told a very funny story from Finland, the Useless Pirate.
Guest, Mike Rogers, told a lovely version of the King of the Fishes, which he had recently heard told by Taffy Thomas.
I told the Tale of the Stoker's Shovel a home made story of a coal stoker aboard the Titanic.
And Guest, Livia, told a beautiful version of an Inuit story, the Skeleton Woman ...her bones tumbling around with the ocean's pebbles for generations... until a young fisherman snags them in his line...

One of the attractive things about these get-togethers is the wide variety of storytellers and the their differing techniques and styles. Wednesday evenings stories and storytellers was a fine example of this, lots of laughter, thrills, excitement and some lovely poetic storytelling images, lovingly crafted.

Our next session is on the 21 July 8.00 at the Elm Tree. Tales will come from the Five Corners of the Earth. And what exactly are the Five Corners? I would guess every storyteller will have their own take on that. Why not come along and fine out or join in.

New Forest Storytellers are on the move.

2010-05-26T11:53:00.004+01:00

All packed, the New Forest Storytellers are on the move to the Elm Tree Hightown, Ringwood and on a new night as well! The Third Wednesday of each month.
