AN ANCIENT tale of betrayal, revenge, love, honour, magic and transformation that transports audiences to the living landscape of North Wales and its brilliant night sky receives an epic telling at Settle Stories' new arts venue, The Joinery in the centre of Settle on Sunday, September 24 (3pm).

The treasured legend of the Fourth Branch of the Mabinogion is brought to the stage by Adverse Camber in Dreaming the Night Field: a legend of Wales, performed by storyteller, Michael Harvey and acclaimed folk musicians, Stacey Blythe and Lynne Denman.

Powerful and poetic, the story was the inspiration behind Alan Garner’s well-loved classic novel, The Owl Service, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. To book visit settlestories.org.uk or telephone 05603-845693.
