Moon and fire

Join award-winning storyteller Peter Chand for an imaginative, thoughtful and lively set of stories from his motherland – India. Tales will include the legend of Arjuna, a central character in the ancient Indian epic The Mahabharata, and renowned as the greatest archer. Peter will recount the part the gods played in helping forge his supreme skills, how a cunning Krishna revealed a warrior’s weak spot, and a battle between the elements themselves for ultimate devotion. Peter Chand is an award-winning international Storyteller, constantly in demand for his unique retelling of tales from his motherland, India. Peter has shared his stories across Britain and has also performed in Norway, France, Austria, Canada, and Singapore, amongst other countries. He grew up with Punjabi as his first language, and still visits family in the Punjab to collect folk tales, translating them into English and sharing them with audiences worldwide. As well as touring extensively, he also shares his storytelling skills by leading workshops with teachers, librarians, budding storytellers, and anyone trying to find their voice and gain confidence when performing in public. Peter is also part of the organising team of Festival at the Edge, which is the oldest storytelling festival in England. He has recently been honoured by being chosen as one of the 100 Masters, by Creative Black Country, which celebrates creativity and excellence within the many towns and cities which make up the Black Country region. ‘Peter transports the listener into his world with remarkable energy and great expression… I was spellbound’ Kim Normanton, Producer – BBC Radio Four Tickets cost £7
