Flight of Fancy Storytelling with the evergreen international teller of tales Malcolm Green

4th June, 2pm to 3.30pm

Malcolm Green is both a naturalist and storyteller who has told stories professionally since 1982. He has taught storytelling at Newcastle University for 20 years and, as manager of the Rising Sun Country Park, made storytelling central to the interpretation.

In his recent work he has endeavoured to integrate a more-than-human perspective into his storytelling, collaborating with scientists and musicians to create a tapestry of ecology, myth and personal experience that convey both the wonder and fragility of life.

His performance pieces include Shearwater and Gone Cuckoo. He is a founder member of A Bit Crack Storytellers www.abitcrack.com with whom he organised the collaborative Dreaming the Land walking project. He is author of Northumberland Folktales. www.malcolm-green.co.uk
