Show Description
FOLK HORROR STORIES Ancient folklore meets modern anxiety...Dive into the eerie and unsettling world of Folk Horror. Contemporary authors and film-makers draw on the archiac folk and fairytales of our ancestors to reveal another, more precarious relationship with our environment -in which we are no longer in charge... Expect shapeshifters, foolhardy pacts and unquiet graves. Don't expect happily ever after! 16+
Simple and basic. I will use whatever you have got - but if you don't have anything I will bring two spots.
I prefer to be in the performance space for at least 3 hours before the show. The closer I am to the audience the better, so I tend not to use high stages. This might mean you adjusting the stage lights.
I can send photos

'To experience Daniel Morden in full flight is an amazing thing. He combines the skills of the Troubadour, the actor, the bard, the standup comedian and the preacher in the pulpit. One of the UK’s greatest storytellers.'
