Storyteller and playwright Martin Ross is performing The Storm Bride a modern fairy tale for an endangered planet
Wednesday 4th December at Whiting Bay Hall, 7pm.
A fundraising event for Eco Savvy. There will also be music from Druma Daiko
This show takes strong elements of Scottish fairy and folk tale, yet situates them in a very contemporary context of an environment being fracked, polluted and generally exploited to within an inch of its life. Energy magnate Nathan Gonrad has discovered a whole new source of cheap energy deep in the bedrock under a Scottish highland valley, but bringing it to the surface causes an environmental disaster. Meanwhile, an old sweetheart of his daughter finds himself invited to the daughter’s wedding to a very mysterious groom, all of which has a mysterious connection to the disaster – and an attempt to placate supernatural forces within the ravaged valley.
Tickets cost £8 full price, £6 for concessions and Eco Savvy staff, trustees and volunteers, on a first come first served basis. You can reserve your place in advance by contacting hzross@gmail.com, or pay at the door.
Teas, coffee and snacks will be provided or you can bring your own bottle. All are welcome, bring your family and friends! This is a fundraising evening for the Eco Savvy shop improvements.
