The event…

The storytelling caravan is a cozy corner in a world apart, it seems. The audience climbs in among the rugs, sheepskin, golden curtains, carnival-like painted wagon with everything arranged to make you feel like you’re stepping into another space and time. In subtle ways, the rhythm slows and it’s easier to listen in. Myths from the Americas and Asia enrich her repertory, as well as more familiar stories from Ireland and France. Awarded a prestigious Commission Award from the Arts Council, Ireland in 2009, she spent a year collecting stories among elders in West Cork and training in the oral tradition. She has also received storytelling commissions from the Cork County Council. Melissa has developed her craft under the guidance of Irish storytellers Liz Weir and Kate Murphy and in France with Alberto Garcia Sànchez and Michel Hindenoch.
