Give Me a Piece of Land and a Good Cow

Go Local Tayside, Perthshire and Fife

(Mon 26 Oct: 7pm)

In the time of creation, when God the Father designed people, Mother Earth also wanted to create something in her own image. So she composed a Cow. Stories about cows, women and resilience from the forests of Finland and the shielings of Scotland, performed by Finnish born storyteller Riikka Palonen, accompanied by Satu Lankinen who brings traditional herding songs and ancient instruments directly from Finland.

At Carnegie Hall Lecture Room, East Port, Dunfermline, KY12 7JA.

This year’s Festival explores the rich relationship between storytelling and the natural world through our theme Bird and Beast. Alongside a vibrant programme at the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh, storytellers across Scotland bring these tales to life this autumn through the Go Local programme. We proudly celebrate Scotland’s cèilidh tradition with an invitation into the story circle, extending a warm welcome to international guests who share their stories, traditions and contemporary practices alongside Scotland’s own world-class talent. Join us for some unforgettable tales and moments that bring us closer to nature, as we follow the trail of footprints and feathers and let our imagination take flight.
