Dame Fortune's Wheel and the Three Estates

Artwork by Jim Kavanagh




On the 28th of March the Undercroft will be hosting an additional performance by one of its regulars, Dave Tonge - The Yarnsmith.

Dame Fortune's Wheel and the Three Estates and is a lighthearted exploration of medieval feudal society - Of the three 'classes' of men and women from long ago. Those who work, those who pray and those who fight. The performance vividly illustrates the ups and downs of people’s lives as they rode upon Fortune’s Wheel. The stories also celebrate the use of the mystical number three, a motif commonly found in many traditional tales. The performance promises a compelling mix of humorous and revealing tales, interwoven with crafty and relevant riddles. Tale telling that brings the long past into the here and now.

As per usual we gather from about 7.30 for an 8.00 start
With a break  about 8.45-9.00 for refreshments from the bar.
