The Suitcase Storytelling Company was founded in 2019 by storytellers Niall Moorjani and Minnie Wilkinson. Their work blends found object theatre with oral tradition storytelling, bringing joy to their audiences through original folk tale-style stories with progressive narratives. They are keen to engage with children and families that don’t often see themselves represented on stage.
Please note – this event is suitable for 5+ years. However younger siblings are welcome at their grown up’s discretion.
