Costume Storytelling
What makes Middle-earth Story-telling so special?
First, we invite anyone and everyone to join in the show! As many as 125 participants of all ages can choose to become one of many characters in the story. Then we dress them in one of our hand made costumes, which have been carefully tailored to transform anybody into a star.
Our trained and experienced storytellers guide the characters through a fantastic imaginary world. Surrounded by dramatic music and sound-effects the children - and adults - immerse themselves in their roles. With no lines to learn or complex instructions to remember, any feelings of shyness or stage fright disappear.
The performance becomes the unpredictable, often hilarious, product of the volunteers' creative interactions as they surprise each other, themselves, and sometimes even the storyteller! Together they weave a unique experience out of each and every show.
We offer a variety of original stories, all with diverse characters and settings. Worlds which can be full of dark mountains, fierce oceans, and desolate deserts featuring mermaids, gypsies, knights in shining armor, pirates and elven princesses. Listed below are five original tales to choose from.
