DÚN LAOGHAIRE STORYTELLING FESTIVAL - MAY 12-14

Once upon a time in Ireland, the art of storytelling was revered in every home in Éire.  Storytelling is one of the art forms we are most famous for, yet it is so rare that we give ourselves the gift of going to see a good storyteller. Well no more excuses because Dun Laoghaire have started their first storytelling festival with shows for adults and kids and even a storytelling course for those who would like to get even more involved... www.storytellingfest.ie

“The Whistler of Dreams” is a 60-min storytelling show with live music. It all started from a dream about Joseph from the Old Testament. With the desire to understand his dream, Raphael decides to tell Joseph’s story. But how can one tell a story of such a flawless character? In the attempt, Raphael strips the story from its religious connotations, and seeks to understand it in the light of his own life. In the process his own imperfections come to light, one image leads to another in an intense spiral which leads to one fundamental question, “Why are we so afraid of the light?”

Singer-songwriter Erik Sjøholm accompanies the stories with his magical singing.
