Join Thomas for a special performance of wild seasonal folk tales in Bristol – and throw in your ideas to create a brand-new adventure story on the spot!

Expect surprising creatures, magical journeys, and (because it’s that time of year) a few spooky moments along the way. And then help Thomas to invent a new adventure story unlike anything that’s been told before… There will be a series of fun creative tasks that need your ideas, from drawing magical maps to inventing unusual beasts.

Praise for Thomas Spencer’s performances:

“Wistful charm and foot-tapping energy.”
Guardian

“Tom the storyteller was brilliant! All he brought with him was a saucepan, himself and his creative imagination and he had the children’s attention from the moment he began. His kind, warm nature made the children feel all their ideas were welcomed…
He really inspired the children. It was amazing!”
Headteacher

This performance is designed to be fun for children and adults alike. Some of the stories may be a bit scary for younger children, so we’d recommend it to ages 7+ (but we’re not going to turn anyone away as every young person is different and we
trust you to know your own children). And while we expect a lot of families at this afternoon event, it’s not only for kids. Adults are totally welcome on their own – folk tales are for everyone.
