Three Heads in a Well Story Club -  Ewell Surrey

Another good teller- with a different slant on telling stories! It will be a treat! See you there!

Fri 22 June
Marion Leaper tells ?the Kitchen Cat? : Three Heads in a Well Story Club-  Ewell Surrey
"She couldn't remember who she was, but she knew that once she had
been someone important?"

Scraps of memory, legend, and black lace woven together to tell one
woman's rags to riches story, La Gata Borralheira ? The Kitchen Cat ?
will take you on a romp through the folktales and cocktail dresses of
1950s Europe.  Marion?s mix of traditional tales and family history is
funny, moving, grotesque, and tragic by turns.

Venue: The Sanctuary.St. Michael's Church, Church Street, Ewell, Surrey. KT17 2AS.      
Time:     7.30- 10pm
Price:     ?7/ ?5 concessions
Notes: ?The Sanctuary? has a ?no shoes? policy for the main hall- so please bring sox or soft shoes to change into.
Age restrictions: Not suitable for under 14's
