The Petal Demon weekend – North Wales and online
From 6pm on Friday, ends 2pm on Sunday
Friday 28th April – Sunday 30th April at Neuadd Goffa Mynydd Llandygai, LL57 4LQ
Join a Tellers, Tales, Tradition weekend near Bangor, North Wales – or connect up from where you are on Zoom.
You are invited to a unique, immersive weekend of storytelling for adults with Shonaleigh, the world-renowned tradition bearer and storyteller. This is a rare chance to hear these ancient tales in the light and on the tongue, stories untold for two generations and barely spoken of for decades.
The Petal Demon, which is the third part of the Cycle of Hillel, is part of the Drut’syla storytelling tradition Shonaleigh learned from her beloved grandmother and mentor Edith Marks.
“In old Jerusalem a gardener’s daughter flees from an evil sorcerer, and takes refuge with an old wise woman who is his equal in magic and wisdom.
“When the wise woman blesses her with her dying breath the girl has no refuge but her own luck and fleetness of foot.
“So begins a journey that will lead her across the world, from East to West, from South to North, over land and sea, never stopping the same place twice, never stopping in any place for long, with the sorcerer always in pursuit.
“A journey that will lead her to the house of a queen and to the intricately knotted heart of an enchanted labyrinth of garden flowers…”
This will be a hybrid event: either attend in-person in Mynydd Llandygai (we’ll supply lunches, teas and snacks) or virtually via Zoom.
