The Crick Crack Club Presents Performance storytelling with TUUP, Nell Phoneix & Hugh Lupton

Three of the Crick Crack Club's finest storytellers, Nell Phoenix, Hugh Lupton & TUUP unveil a grand cabinet of zoological curiosities, with animalistic fables for metropolitan grown-ups!

Flouting logic, enlightened reason and the natural sciences in general, this will be a evening of unfluffy bunnies, beasts behaving badly, and unbridled social satire at its most entertaining.

Comedic, surreal and magical by turn - come and take a walk on the wilder side of fairytale...

NELL PHOENIX balances beautifully the comedic, the magical, and occasionally the downright rude, through an utterly engaging storytelling style. Recent work includes stories told at Highgrove, Hackney Library, Kensington Palace, the V&A and at 40 Winks. She is Artistic Director of StoryNight at Torriano, one of London’s thriving performance storytelling clubs for adults.

TUUP is The Unorthodox, Unprecedented Preacher. Born in Guyana and raised in Acton, his style is one of total improvisation, unbounded charisma and alarming spontaneity. His fabulous capacity for mimicry and ear for a wild story is outstanding. As if that wasn't enough, he's also the creative lyricist and vocalist of the highly influential dance music collective, Transglobal Underground.

HUGH LUPTON is the poet of the storytelling world. His distinctive style focuses on richly crafted use of the English language. An award winning performer and writer, he has collaborated widely with singers and musicians, and in 2005, he won the Classical Association prize for ‘the most significant contribution to the public understanding of the classics’ with Daniel Morden. And behind all that beautiful English poetry lurks a wicked sense of humour...
