Joy Smith: Story telling and harps

Jorge Jimenez: Violin & Vielle

An evening of curious tales, toe-tapping tunes and delightful nonsense – all lovingly hosted by the one and only Queen of Hearts.

Recommended dress code: Elegant pyjamas/delectable dressing gowns/glamorous nighties – teddy bears welcome but they are NOT permitted to consume alcohol and are expected to be on their best 'bearhaviour'. A prize for the best bedtime story outfit.

Step into a world where the strange rubs shoulders with the sublime, where stories wander in from distant lands and familiar corners, and where harps and violins conjure the kind of magic that lingers long after the last note fades.

Expect a night of cheeky, heartwarming, and life-affirming stories, served with a wink and a smile – plus music to make your toes dance and your spirit hum.
