Earshot - Open Floor

EARSHOT – FORBIDDEN FRUIT

The sun is here, the sap has risen, the fruit is ripening on the tree. Some fruit gives life and some is forbidden. Which one will you choose?

Earshot Storytellers Ronnie Conboy, Lisa Schneidau and Clive PiG tell tales & myths of forbidden fruit, followed by open floor spots.

To reserve a spot please email in advance southdevonstorytellers@gmail.com or send us a message on social media. Maximum 10 minutes with no notes or prompts.

Earshot is a place where traditional storytelling feels new.

DOORS 7:30PM | FREE ENTRY

We are meeting UPSTAIRS in the Barrel House Ballroom – on every 3rd Wednesday of the month. Unfortunately this is not an accessible venue.
