About The Reluctant Storyteller - The Shakespeare Gallery and Studios

A wildly inventive and darkly comic solo performance that blends storytelling, object theatre, and absurdist satire into a surreal journey about memory, technology, and the fragility of life. Followed by a Q&A.

Set in a not-so-distant future where, without warning, all the birds have gone, a reluctant storyteller wanders over to unravel a strange tale. Once, the birds carried the world’s stories, but when they disappeared, an unlikely successor emerged.

But the world is changing...

Not just a theatre show, but also an immersive exhibition - admire drawings and paintings of birds, small textile sculptural birds, a big sculptural bird, and bird mobiles and origami hanging from the ceiling. All work will be for sale, so you can take home a souvenir of your visit.
