Each month the Crick Crack Club turn the sedate surroundings of the British Museum lecture theatre into a flickering cave of wonder. This is where to come for your Sunday afternoon epic overload!

In the beginning there was nothing except Death, his wife and his only daughter. Death created a vast ocean of mud for his family to live in. Woyengi, goddess of creation and fate, was repulsed by the filth. Sitting at a great wooden table in a barren field, she set about the business of creating living beings... including the powerful Oboyngba - healer, magician & rebellious spirit.

Complete with power struggles, audacious challenges, magical battles, rage, revenge and banishment, Jan Blake shares tales of creation and of extinction, and the reasons behind both. Expect raw hardcore magic.
