Universes - III
An evening with stories & storytellers.
Hear that sound?
A little box has opened up
and out taking a walk
are these stories
not just one.
Some new, some old
Some forgotten, tired and cold.
Put your ears to the wind,
and you'll hear
the gossip
they have cooked and served.
Created & performed by storytellers in their unique way!
