About

Over the years weve asked our audience who theyd most like us to invite, and one name kept coming up, that of the master storyteller Hugh Lupton.

Over the years weve asked our audience who theyd most like us to invite, and one name kept coming up, that of the master storyteller Hugh Lupton. So were over the moon that weve finally arranged for him to come to us!
Hugh writes of this show: Since the earliest times there has been a strong, almost a magical connection between people and horses. We can see it in paleolithic cave-paintings of wild horses, we can see it in the reverence paid to the horse in Celtic culture, just as we can see it in old black and white footage of farm labourers working their ploughs with teams of shires. It is a relationship that has continued through history, we feel it instinctively still; when we are in the presence of horses an old memory is wakened in us.
This programme of words and music explores and celebrates the ancient relationship between man and horse. It also explores what we have lost by being out of touch with horse presence. Using story, poetry, song and music it evokes the companionship and the mystery, the sense of otherness that horses conjure in us.
This promises to be a truly unmissable evening. Come and join us in Northampton's lovely Quaker Meeting House, for the great company, the excellent cakes, and most of all, for this superb and most widely renowned storyteller.
Doors open 7.00 for 7.30 start, as usual.More about Storytelling at the Feast of Fools at https://storyfeast.uk/
