Scotland’s world-leading storytelling festival returns 22 Oct–1 Nov with a northern theme, international guests and over 60 local events.

"...this wonderfully conceived 'Mahabharata: The Women' could enjoy a long, and illustrious performing future." Gauri Raje' & Mairi Campbell's show impresses.

"...a warm-up performer and main act all in one" - It turns out 60 minutes with Jeeva Raghunath and these 'Spicy Tales of India' is simply not enough.

"Accomplished and thought-provoking, 'Slowing Down to the Speed of Light' is a valiant and superbly genial exploration of life, ADHD, and more."

A "mischievous" Townsend & "gently impassioned" Álvarez Villa offer "a great show, with the makings of something very special..." with 'The Dream of Al-Andalus'
