THE Story Giant, a family show for anyone aged seven or over, comes to The Courtyard on Monday, October 27.

It’s night time on Dartmoor and a cold wind whistles through the bracken and gorse, making them sing. Deep in his castle, The Story Giant is dying. Through the centuries, he has gathered all the tales in existence. All that is, except one. Tonight his very life relies on it.

Exploring folklore, myth and fairytale from around the world, join Shanty Theatre Company as they meet ghosts, talking skulls, monsters, thieves, tricksters, dragons, and homing chickens in an adventure to find the last story on earth.

Adapted from the book by legendary Liverpool poet Brian Patten, The Story Giant is offered in conjunction with the Courtyard Club for children aged 13 and under. Membership is free and offers a range of discounts and a loyalty scheme.

The Story Giant is at The Courtyard on Monday, October 27 at 3.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
