Tell Tale Twit... A Storytelling Show by Gav Cross
by Gav Cross: Storytellercomedy, children-and-family
Dare you go back to those Nursery Rhymes? Nonsense, nastiness and roaring chaos as we turn our childhood tales upside down to find out what!
about the production
Lurking on our bookshelves, forgotten and dusty from lack of love, sit short sinister stories. Hiding in plain sight. Nursery Rhymes and Fairy Tales. Some famous, some lost….for good reason? You’ll find out. Join Gav Cross for deep dives into the words we seem to know so well but we never really listened to. More nonsense, nastiness and roaring chaos as we turn our childhood tales upside down to find out what lies beneath!

Experienced with Relaxed Performance.
I am very experienced in community outreach workshops and performances. As part of the recent Highlights Rural Tour of Cumbria, County Durham and Northumberland, I delivered workshops and performances in Schools, Libraries and Community Spaces. Happy to discuss fee. The fee was £250 for a 2 to 3 hourworkshop and experience. I am really happy to discuss your budgets and needs for this additionality.
Fee: £600 for two shows a day. Travel and accommodation may need to be added. I understand that budgets vary, please contact me if you'd like to discuss a single show day or a reduced price for community, libraries or small scale shows.
A Solo Show that can be performed at a distance. Or online. Easily.
