Shonaleigh is a Drut’syla, a storyteller in the Jewish tradition - a tradition she sees as very much alive. With a repertoire of 3000 stories which can be adapted for different audiences and age groups, she is an incredibly versatile and talented storyteller who has performed all over Britain, Europe and the United States. Shonaleigh has told her entertaining and thoughtful stories at the London Albert Hall, The Barbican Theatre, and Festival at the Edge Shropshire. A great deal of Shonaleigh's work involves storytelling and training with teenagers, and in helping the immigrant community find their voices.
 

 

Peter was born in Wolverhampton to Punjabi parents who arrived in England from India in the 1950’s. He has a vast repertoire of tales from the sub-continent, many of which he has collected and translated from Punjabi  into English. A large part of his work takes him into school settings, where he helps pupils create and tell their own stories. He has told stories at the British Library, The National Gallery, and many libraries, festivals,  and museums across Britain. Peter has also performed in Greece, Norway, The Netherlands, Ireland, and India.
