As the night draws in, the stories change. Viktor Wynd - artist, collector, showman and the presiding genius of London's Last Tuesday Society - brings his singular vision to this late-night performance event, weaving together storytelling and live folk music in a darkly enchanting evening inspired by his book Dark Fairy Tales.

 

These are not the fairy tales of childhood. They are older, stranger and far more dangerous - tales in which forests have teeth, bargains have prices, and the magic is always double-edged. A one-of-a-kind festival experience for adventurous adult audiences. Not recommended for the faint of heart.
