All Told - stories from the Bay and beyond

Storyteller Sara Hurley and Still Point Dance Theatre co-present a double bill of performance to celebrate stories that are both local and universal, taking audiences on a journey back through a lifetime, and through the twists and turns of a fairy tale adventure.

We are all storytellers, making sense of our lives and our place in the world through the stories that we shape and share with each other. We re-tell our experiences and in the telling we continue to shape our personal narratives. Stories can inspire us and connect us to others through our shared experiences. You may even feel inspired to spin a yarn or two yourself over the course of the evening!

FOR YOUR AGE / Still Point Dance Theatre

Imaginatively and beautifully interweaved very moving

Elizabeth is a dancer. She has white hair and sometimes she wobbles. She hates the words for your age... Drawing on life stories gathered with local Torbay residents, Still Point Dance Theatre present For Your Age - a short piece of dance theatre exploring ageing and memory, the things we treasure, and the stuff we sometimes have to let go of. Still Point Dance Theatre are a group of Devon based artists collaborating across performance, digital media and participation.

The Goose Girl / A wonder tale told by storyteller, Sara Hurley

The queen gives the princess a handkerchief and a horse to protect her on her long journey ahead. A tale of twists and turns, of hope and loss, love and betrayal and a gregarious gaggle of geese.

Sara Hurley is a warm, vibrant storyteller with a wonderful ability to engage audiences of all ages. She performs in theatres, at festivals, libraries and conferences nationally and internationally, bringing stories to life.
