Folk Tales from the Canal Side by Ian Douglas
Stories that celebrate the real people that lived and worked on Britain's canals
"Ian's first book was altogether a very enjoyable read, and one which caused me to frequently laugh out loudI must say I read the entire book in one sitting. I highly recommend it!" -- Linda Hollington, Editor
IAN DOUGLAS has been a professional storyteller for 23 years, working at festivals, schools and libraries across the world. His work draws upon a rich vein of British folk tales and world myths, mixed with comedic energy. Ian was the founder member of two story-based theatre companies and went on to become storyteller and theatre practitioner in residence for various organisations across the north, including ‘Northern Stage’ and ‘Live Theatre’ in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and most recently ‘Theatre by the Lake’ in Keswick. It was during this last residency that Ian created ‘Storytree’, an interactive space designed to enable people to hear, make and share stories – this work has had a major impact on the arts across the North of England.
