Here's what happened last year:
"The festival is taking place from Friday 24th to Monday 27th July this year at The Blaxhall Ship in Suffolk.
We will be gathering professional storytellers from all over East Anglia (plus bringing back one notable former resident!) to share their tales of joy, sorrow and laughter at this historic pub with a folk tradition going back many centuries and still going strong today.
In the time honoured tradition of storytelling, we are funding the festival primarily by passing round a hat at each of the sessions.
There will be:
- 3 family telling sessions in the afternoons
- 3 evening adult only sessions
Our featured tellers include:
Taffy Thomas MBE, John Row, Dave Tonge, Marion Leeper,
Suzanne Arnold, Carl Merry, Justine de Mierre,
Tilly the Talespinner, Mark Scott-Ison and Sarah Walker
plus there will be other popular local tellers in our guest spots!
We want everyone to be able to attend whether they can afford to contribute or not - storytelling is for everyone! However, we would love to be able to cover all the expenses for all of our featured tellers (food, travel, childcare, accommodation) and even offer them a small fee if we can, so we have created this "Virtual Hat" to achieve that goal!
Can you help show our tellers the appreciation they undoubtedly deserve?
If so, please donate to this our virtual hat!

Whatever we raise we will put first towards our featured teller’s costs and then anything left over we will share equally between all the featured tellers, up to Society for Storytelling guideline rates. If we raise anything above that we will put it towards The East Anglian Storytelling Festival 2016!"
Stories are what make us human - lets celebrate that and keep this age old tradition as relevant, exciting and fun as it’s always been!
