Smoke and Sickle
(Sun 20 Oct: 6pm)
Combining the mythical with the modern, Emery Hunter and Bobby Bradley explore how we navigate each other’s identities in moments of vulnerability. Diving between languages and cultures, this retelling of the Selkie myth offers an exploration of identity, trust and manipulation, exploring how we make judgements on others and how we use our own identities in the world. Performed in BSL, Visual Vernacular and English.
Originally commissioned for the Village Storytelling Festival 2024.
~~~~~~~~~~
2024 marks the 35th anniversary of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival, coinciding with the 35th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Since 1989, SISF has been building bridges between cultures, artists and audiences all over the world through the power of storytelling – connecting past, present and future. This year’s theme is ‘Bridges Between’. At a time where literal, figurative and societal walls continue to be constructed, we invite everyone to look beyond these boundaries and to celebrate the last and the next 35 years of storytelling with us.
