June 4th - The Beautiful Game

On June 4th we honour the World Cup by hosting two Staffordshire tellers, Ana Lines and Cath Edwards telling:

The Beautiful Game

It’s a show of two halves! Brazilian storyteller Ana Lines and English storyteller Cath Edwards present  a special tribute to the World Cup and its host country, Brazil.
 In something of a departure from their usual traditional repertoire, Cath (born in the country of football’s origin) and Ana (born in the country where they’re really good at football) have found some of the game’s most entertaining tales. With football heroes , some quirky memories, a swift tour of some of the funnier chants, at least those that are repeatable, and the odd joke, this is a show that even football-phobes will enjoy.

We are really looking forward to this one, although in truth its a game of three halves, for Ana and Cath have asked that some of our regular tellers fill the second half of the evening with stories from the countries taking part. Not all of them obviously as there are not enough of us, but then again new tellers are always welcome at the Undercroft!

As per usual we gather from 7.30 for an 8.00 pm start and you never know Jim  might join us, so dont be late lest he have your guts for garters!
