Our Aims
The oral
tradition of storytelling is the best communication
available to us, it is face to face. It offers a key to a
deep appreciation of what it means to be human.
Our aim is to encourage the art of oral storytelling
in general and in particular to revive the lost art of oral
biblical storytelling.
We do this against a backdrop of music, art, and poetry, in
an atmosphere of respect, conviviality, and community. The
ethos of sharing and hospitality is at the heart of what we
do.
Who Are We?
The Credo Storytellers are a group of performing artists
working in the fields of television, film, poetry, theatre
and education. As artists we are excited by the revival of
the oral tradition of storytelling. We are attracted by its
simplicity of form, the inspirational release it brings to
the imagination, its capacity to deal with universal themes
and complexities of the heart.
