Spellbinding storytellers perform their kaleidoscopic fairytale

A young prince falls endlessly down through the darkness. In a field of giant poppies, a beautiful old woman is trapped in a cottage nestled in a huge claw. Saddled horses stand frozen in a dripping grey landscape, their missing riders lost to The Land of No Return.

Daniel Morden’s mesmeric tales of hope are accompanied by the exquisite strings of Oliver Wilson-Dickson and Sarah Moody.

‘A scintillating combination of music, sound and story’ THE TIMES

'To experience Daniel Morden in full flight is an amazing thing' IAN MACMILLAN

'A master weaver of tales spinning a magical thread of narrative, drawing on numerous traditional folk tales and myths' THE BRISTOL POST
