Crick Crack Club hosts a night of Stories in the Dark
Crick Crack Club’s monthly storytelling nights are set to continue in Bristol on April 22, but with one important difference: this one is in the dark.
World-class storyteller and Crick Crack Club founder Ben Haggarty leads the assembled cast of voices who will be speaking in atmospheric darkness at St Werburgh’s Community Centre.
Haggarty has performed around the world, and his work has been commissioned by the Barbican, the National Gallery and the British Museum among numerous other institutions.

Also on the bill, Clare Murphy is over 15 years into her storytelling career, and has told her stories internationally, from San Francisco to Soho.
Her work explores the boundaries between science, philosophy and mythology.

Returning to the club, Embers Collective member, half-English and half-Finnish storyteller Sarah Liisa Wilkinson continues her Crick Crack journey, to discover how her stories transform when the lights are turned off.
Join us as we cook up an experiment of wild uncertainty.
Come with us into the unmapped terrain of stories told in the dark, shot through with enchantment, transformation, things lost, things found, grown-up fairytale and weird myth. Here, anything you see, happens in the cinema of your imagination.
