Ben Haggerty is one of the premier storytellers from the UK, one of the founders of the London based Crick Crack Club. He has run and created festivals and was a major force in helping the UK storytelling renaissance. He has mentored many tellers, and even written a graphic novel. He brought Duncan Williamson, Scottish traveller storyteller, to English audiences, amongst others. I don’t want to spoil what we get into, but we went deep into the craft. Sadly we didn't get to talk about projects such as his graphic novels, but he left us with a lot to think about.
I hope you enjoy this episode.
