Tall tales of friendships, food and fun that are guaranteed to delight and have you singing along with their catchy refrains. Quirky, wholesome stories that fill you with hope that perseverance will be rewarded, friendship is paramount, vegetables can save your life and even great sadness passes.
Old stories, new stories, big stories, small stories - come and share a story and a song with storyteller Tanya Batt and musician Peter Forster.
Storyteller & author Tanya Batt and musician Peter Forster hail from planet Waiheke – a small but lovely rock off the eastern coast of Aotearoa, New Zealand. They love singing, riding their bicycles, planting trees and creating wonderful musical ‘story sandwiches’ – preferably all at the same time!
Their sessions are highly interactive, filled with movement, music and magic.
“She is a spellbinder. In all my years of telling and listening to stories I have never heard anyone who can match Tanya Batt. Only a few story tellers can send shivers of joy up a child's spine. Tanya Batt is the best of those who can.”
- Paul Jennings, Multi Award winning Australian Author
