Tales, Tongues and Trails
Hosted by Aberdeenshire-based storytellers Grace Banks and Jackie Ross, with film footage featuring Tony Robertson.
Enjoy an evening of multimedia storytelling in the Scottish Storytelling Centre's Netherbow Theatre with Map of Stories, where a world of local Scottish stories unfolds through the live voices of traditional storytellers and site-specific film footage of the landscapes they emerge from. Map of Stories is produced by Transgressive North for VisitScotland’s Year of Stories and is part of Tales, Tongues and Trails, a celebration of regional and international language, landscape and identities for the Scottish International Storytelling Festival 2022.
