February Night of the Storyteller

On Thursday 19th February, TailSpin presents a pulse-quickening, funny-bone-tickling, imagination-prickling evening of stories and live music.

PORTRAIT OF THE HERO AS A YOUNG DOG
By Dominic Kelly
He is the fiercest, the fastest, and the most feared warrior. He has the divine light of a hero across his brow.. His name is Cú Chulainn. And he is just a boy.
Join Dominic for a wild romp through the childhood of a demi-god.

Dominic’s dynamic style, dry wit and superb composition have captivated audiences across the UK and around the world. He has performed in many prominent venues and festivals including The Barbican and the National Theatre in London, The Times Literature Festival, and on tour internationally from India to the Arctic Circle.

Music from London-based singer-songwriter-pianist Julie McKee - like early Goldfrapp with a dash of Tori Amos melodrama and the wit and pathos of Randy Newman. Join Julie and a cast of lost souls from her 2014 album Light on the Ledge: expect beer-swilling MCs, journalists, politicians, wanderers, prohibited wartime encounters and misguided protégés...

Plus short stories from Abbie Palache and Tim Ralphs (also our gallant MC for the evening).

Come early to check out The Miller’s excellent menu and to sample their selection of beers, wines and cocktails...
