ARTS Alive present the intriguingly-named seriouskitchen in The Whispering Road at Eardisley Curzon Herrick Hall on Saturday, March 14.

Seriouskitchen is storyteller Nick Hennessey, with musicians Vicki Swan and Jonny Dyer, who draw on the rich heritage of Scandinavian myths and stories to blend Nick’s spellbinding storytelling with Vicki Swan and Jonny Dyer’s experience in the Swedish folk music scene.

The Whispering Road tells the story of hope in the darkness, of two strangers bound by a ring and of the one who could not love. The show bubbles with vivid imagery and thrilling music, leaping between song, music and the spoken word, leading the audience on a fantastical journey to a land where every bird and beast has power and every encounter a deeper purpose. The Whispering Road is brought to life with accompaniment of traditional Swedish music on the Swedish nyckelharpa, kohorn (cow horn), accordion, guitar and three-part close harmony singing.

The show is suitable for children, 8+. To book for The Whispering Road on Saturday, March 14 at 7.30pm, call 01544 327844 or visit artsalive.co.uk.
