Guid Crack: Midsummer Dreaming
with Harriet Grindley
(Fri 26 Jun: 7:30pm)
Dreams pursued, wishes granted or nightmares uncovered, how far would you go to make your dreams come true? Angus Òg, Lord of Summer, bringer of dreams, is at the height of his powers in this Midsummer season. Stories, songs, riddles, spells in the realm of the 'what if' to enchant the long summer evening.
Another fun and friendly session of Edinburgh’s monthly storytelling club held upstairs in the Waverley Bar, with the usual open-floor section for anyone to share a story, song or poem around the theme or otherwise.
Harriet Grindley is the co-host of the popular storytelling ceilidh series organised by the Burgh Blatherers at the Scottish Storytelling Centre. Her stories connect with place, history, myth and community with tales traditional and new. She particularly enjoys using Gaelic, songs, clarsach or concertina, found objects and image to create an immersive and inclusive environment.
Supported by the Scottish Storytelling Forum and TRACS (Traditional Arts and Culture Scotland) through Creative Scotland Multi-Year Funding.
This event is free and non-ticketed, but capacity is limited so get down early to ensure a seat! Cash donations welcome on the night.
