Special performance - SEA TALES
Join in lively and interactive musical storytelling about wild storms, brave journeys to distant lands, lighthouse keepers and beat boxing whales.
Sea tales is performed by Miles Merrill and a collection of poets together with multi-instrumentalist Trevor Brown to create a spoken-word musical journey exploring the reasons why we journey by sea: love, work, migration, amusement and adventure.
Sea tales is presented in partnership with Word Travels’ Story Week- an annual celebration of poetry slams, workshops and storytelling events.
