Telling Tall Tales with National Storytelling Week
2017 marks the 17th year of its Annual National Storytelling Week, which runs from 28th January~4th February. National Storytelling Week takes place in storytelling clubs, theatres, museums, schools, hospitals, spoken word venues, and care homes (where this event has been steadily growing each year!) National Storytelling Week is celebrated by all ages in the telling of folk and fairy tales, ripping yarns adventures, or just what you overheard on the number 68 bus to Bulwell. Anything can be a story but a good teller of stories will conjure it intriguingly and spin a web in which their audience become enthralled.
This week, why don’t you tell a story – in school or out. It can be one you’ve read in a book (perhaps borrowed from your local library), seen in a film or play, or one you make up yourself! You can also use it toward signing off a challenge when logged into the site. And, if you can’t find a story to tell, get someone else to tell you theirs and share it!
Go on – get creative and tell a story this week!
