Hagtale: A Macbeth Origin Story with Sally O'Reilly

Hagtale is a dark fairy tale. In eleventh-century Scotland, feral wolf-child Wulva is brought up by witches but sent to live at a Scottish castle where she falls under the spell of ambitious and cruel Lord Macbeth. Three hundred years later, gentle Brother Rowan goes on a perilous journey to a remote and ancient monastery to write a history of the Scottish king-line. Misfits in their own time, seekers after truth, Wulva and Rowan are mysteriously connected.
Join Sheffield based author Sally O'Reilly as she introduces Hagtale and explores the power of stories loat and found, their redemptive power and who gets to tell the tale.
