Composite Calendar
ÌÇÐÄTV University is holding its first storytelling conference aimed at storytellers, arts practitioners, and researchers.
What do we want the future of storytelling research to be? This conference considers current work that is being done in the broad field of storytelling. The aim is to engage people to thinking different avenues that future research in storytelling could take. We will cover a number of different topics involving inclusive research with people with learning difficulties, applied storytelling and drama with the Belgrade Theatre, and how to consider the role of the storyteller in research. In line with our creative theme there will be a live/recorded performance of How the Gypsies got their music (by Cornish storyteller Mike O’Connor), and a poetry writing workshop.
The conference is free and includes a buffet lunch. However we would like to pay our storyteller(s)! . If we recieve any extra funds this will go to local Coventry artists.
Registration is required to attend. If you are interested in attending please email: e.l.parfitt@warwick.ac.uk
