Unlock my Cage - Performance Storytelling by Michael Harvey
UNLOCK MY CAGE
A captivating Breton tale of cross-dressing, a huge hairy man, and a plot that twists and turns like a vine ascending a towering oak...
Unlock My Cage is a story of wonder and transformation from Brittany, performed by Michael Harvey. Francois Marie-Luzel collected this wonder-tale in 1871 from Guillaume Garandel in Plouaret in Brittany. Hang on to your hats - this ones a corker!
MICHAEL HARVEY
Michael Harvey is one of the UKs top storytellers. He has told stories both as a solo performer and with other artists throughout the UK and Europe as well festivals in North and South America. Most of his work is in either English or Welsh and occasionally both at the same time! He draws particular inspiration from the Welsh oral heritage and landscape and combines depth of material with deft delivery, minted fresh for every audience.
In 2011 he was awarded a Major Creative Wales Award and is currently taking part in the the 3rd Labo (experimental group) at La Maison du Conte in Paris. In 2012 he won a coveted BASE (British Awards for Storytelling Excellence) Award for Hunting the Giants Daughter ( a faithful contemporary retelling of the medieval Welsh tale Culhwch ac Olwen).
The CoResist Collective is very excited to host Michael here in Bristol. Please book in advance tickets will sell out!
