One pub is closing every day. And Labour's 'banter ban' ? Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill ? is only going to make it worse as pubs are left with the escalating bills to cover their legal costs.

Ben Ansell, in Why Politics Fails, outlines "five traps of the modern world and how to escape them". Professor James Alexander wonders how he can escape yet another book that tries to save the world with Left-wing dogma.

The African Union's demand for colonial reparations is an act of cynical opportunism that ignores that slavery was already endemic in Africa, and African kingdoms resisted abolition even as the British forced it on them.

One of Ireland's most innovative professional storytellers, accompanied by one of our most experienced teachers of improvisation and non-verbal communications, invites you to learn the secrets of un-writing and embodying the traditional tale for live peformance.

Workshop leader Coilín "The Oh-Aissieux" is the founder-director of the Narrative Arts Club, which has been bringing innovative storytelling to audiences in Dublin city centre since September 2005. Coilín has also performed storytelling shows for the students' unions at both the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) and the Institute of Art, Design and Technology (IADT), the de Bono Foundation and the Royal Dublin Society (RDS). Most recently, he has collaborated with storyteller Adam Wilson and musicians Rich Flynn and Claire Fitch to present Inuit and ancient Irish tales within original electronic soundscapes.

For this workshop, Coilín is joined by the delightful Kay Scorah, who will introduce participants to "embodied storytelling".

Kay studied acting at the Beverly Hills Playhouse in 1988/89 and has since continued to train in dance and theatre forms from contemporary to contact improvisation through Butoh to Bouffon. In 2009 she appeared in the Fluxus show directed by Larry Miller in Dublin, and in One Penny Operas with Myriad Dance in Wexford and Dublin. And she presented her own show, Never Look in the Mirror when You're Dancing, featuring Jessica and Megan Kennedy, in the Dublin Fringe Theatre Festival 2010.

In this workshop, you will gain confidence in:
Breathing new life into old folktales for live performance.
Embodying your stories in movement and gesture.
Evoking a diversity of emotional responses from your audience.

The workshop will provide you with everything you need - including texts and masks! All you have to bring is a set of comfortable clothes, including good socks.

To request a place on this workshop, please send your contact details:
by e-mail to narrativearts@gmail.com
or by text to 086 060 3818
