In mid-June, Emma King-Farlow and Amy Floyd sat down to discuss the changes in cast and script that were being made to the Fireside Folktales scripts in advance of their upcoming bookings at St Osmund's Church (July), Ham House & Garden (August), and Strawberry Hill House & Garden (September).

Myths, legends and classic tales from around the world, retold in a magical 8m diameter bell tent by the team from Shadow Road Productions (www.shadowroad.com). All plays and stories are performed by professional actors and - where possible - accompanied by marshmallows to roast over the flames!

One Week To Go!
On 2nd May 2019, with a little over a week to go until the Fireside Folktales company make their debut at the Barnes Children's Literature Festival, Amy Floyd and Emma King-Farlow take stock - and consider the dubious merits of releasing an unedited episode of the podcast!
