About this Event
Tales of the Heart
A traditional telling of love stories from around the world.
Love comes in many shapes and forms. And whether we recognise it or not, we are surrounded by love all the days of our lives.
During this enchanting evening, you will hear traditional tales of love and longing from different cultures and different times. Tales of romantic love, platonic love, even the love of a dog for its master are beautifully stitched together with memories, hopes and dreams.
Expect laughter, tears, moments of revelation and happy endings. The perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day – with a lover, friends, family or even just by yourself. All are welcome to this celebration of love – in all its guises.
What have people said about Maria Credali’s storytelling?
“Fabulously entertaining!”
“An awesome evening – beguiling! Transported to other worlds and places while playing with Maria’s stories and riddles – one of the best storytellers around,”
“She has a voice like velvet and a twinkle in her eye. Maria’s stories have the power to both move as well as entertain. There is a wicked humour too that sparkles through and you feel better having listened to her tales. “
