Live Crankie Show:
Beyond The Glass Mountain
(LITTLE VENICE)
Puppet Theatre Barge • Little Venice
1st May 7.30pm
Live Crankie Show
Cath Little and Bronia Evers tell stories of love, loss and renewal with words, song and moving pictures.
If the living and the dead could speak, what questions would they ask of one another? How can love and our connection with the natural world help us to remember and renew the parts of ourselves that have been forgotten? Beyond the Glass Mountain weaves traditional and contemporary tales, spoken and sung, with the simple visual magic of crankie theatre. A crankie is a miniature theatre box containing hand-crafted, scrolling illustrations.
This show is a collaboration between singer and storyteller Cath Little and storyteller/crankie artist Bronia Evers.
"A StoryNight classic! Exceptional talent headlining the evening. Cath Little and Bronia Evers brought us pure wonder, and woo’d us with their well-rooted tellings and gently compelling audience connection. A rare treat - sublime!"
- Nell Phoenix, Storyteller and Host of StoryNight Toriano, London.
“Thank you for your wonderful show. Just beautiful art, theatre and storytelling, you had the audience enthralled.”
- Sue Smee, Head of programming, Ruskin Mill, Gloucestershire.”
