storytellers
Amanda Rackstraw
A story is so much more than its narrative, and that`s what I try to capture and share with the audience. I tell stories to suit the occasion, but am always delighted to be able tell favourite tales from my repertory which are often considerably re-invented from their original. The telling of a story should happen in, and belong to, the moment. It can never be the same again. That`s what I love about it.
