Who Cares for Death?
Go Local - North East
(Tue 28 Oct: 6:30pm - Aberdeen)
Norwegian storyteller Mimesis Heidi Dahlsveen shares stories on the inevitable concept of death and, throughout the evening, we encounter death as it is characterized in Norwegian folktales, legends, and Old Norse poetry and prose. The storytelling performance explores the topic with a distinct emphasis on both the poetic and the humorous.
Hosted by GAS (Grampian Association of Storytellers) and Elphinstone Institute. At the Sir Duncan Rice Library, Bedford Rd, AB24 3AA.
