The World Tree – Forging Fantastical, Swindon
May 5 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
A storytelling show for grown-ups (Ages 14+ welcome) dogs not permitted.
In a world of magic and miracles, the ash tree holds all of creation in its roots and branches. Odin hangs upside down from the great tree, waiting for wisdom to come. But what happens when the ash tree falls sick?
Ash is one of our commonest trees, bringing many gifts: timber, fuel, tools, inspiration, and protection. Now, ash dieback is on the march through our countryside. The World Tree is a story dedicated to our beloved ash trees, past, present, and future.
Meet inside The Barn, where cakes, pasties, cheese scones, and soft drinks will be available to buy.
Lisa Schneidau is both storyteller and author on traditional folk tales, with a background as farm advisor, river surveyor, and conservation director.
6.45 pm Inside The Barn, Stanton Park Woods, The Avenue, Stanton Fitzwarren, Swindon SN6 7SF. Show start time 7pm, please be seated by 6.45pm. Free parking outside the barn.
Tickets £8 (ages 14+)
