Ard Bia, Spanish Arch, Galway

'Up and Away'
Doors
at 8PM -
Admission €5 - tickets on the door
Moth & Butterfly continue into 2014 with their exciting series of
nights, which brings together the art forms of both Storytelling &
Improvisation. The night is Galway based but also travels to festivals and
events around Ireland.
Each M&B night will have a special theme, and all
Storytellers will be invited to tell a story that fits with that
theme. For April 2014 the theme is 'Up and Away'.
Stories will be provided by the Moth and Butterfly Crew Creative team,
and of course, by the Audience themselves!
There will be three types of Storytelling on the night:
Moth style stories must be short, true, thematic, and feature the
teller themselves as a character.
Improvised stories will be created fresh on the spot – no two are
the same!
Freefall stories are all other stories that still fit the theme –
from fiction to fairy tales, from tall tales to a story in a song.
This is a night for oral storytelling, so no reading or notes allowed –
just pure story!
The night is for both tellers and listeners, for without
good listeners; there would be no good stories! There will be opportunity for
people to tell and also to just sit comfy and join in the journey of the
imagination.
Great stories invite us in for a listen. They don’t always have to be
funny by any means. They draw from a wide emotional palette. We love
to laugh, but also to cry, to growl, to gasp. We invite people to
tell stories from the heart.
For more detailed information on how the night will work, please check out our
page on Facebook.
The Moth & Butterfly Crew is made up of professional
performers, writers and storytellers. They were inspired by the
transformational nature of improvisation (Butterfly) along with the wonderful
‘Moth’ tradition of true Storytelling that originated in the USA, and thought
that the two combined would make for a very special
night. They are delighted to share this with Galway Audiences.
Our events attract audience members from all over the globe and welcome
your feedback.
"A really lovely
night - thank you for creating something very special, we're already looking
forward to the next one..." - Michael, Moth and Butterfly audience member.
