English
By (author): Lisette Auton Rory Mullarkey
Two plays made up of ten short stories that bring together the wild imaginations of school children with major writers from the North East of England. Based on the pioneering Live Tales creative writing model at Live Theatre in Newcastle, placing childrens authorship at the centre of the creative process, Wintry Tales offers a series of brilliant, alternative takes on the Christmas story. A mysterious bout of snowfall in ASDA A wizard detective with a love of hot chocolate A lonely polar bear seeking another sharp-toothed friend An elf kickstarting a workers revolution Simple in form but deliciously rich in ideas, these explosive dramatic works can be performed by just two actors on either a packed or empty stage. Its all about the words! And the outrageous ideas behind them The perfect book for anyone seeking an alternative Christmas offering, whether to read, perform or watch live onstage. Rory Mullarkey is one of the UKs leading playwrights with a major body of work that spans The National Theatre, The Globe, The Royal Court Theatre and beyond.
