Queens of Albion
How come we've forgotten the story of our first (and fiercest) mythic mothers? Queens of Albion aims to set the record straight!
About Queens of Albion
In the days before Britain had been named, they were the first to set foot on the island. Sisters. Refugees. Shipwrecked and storm-weary. On the hunt for a home of their own. A land where they could live free.
So how come we’ve forgotten the story of our first (and fiercest) mythic mothers? Queens of Albion aims to set the record straight – as well spilling the beans on how a giant made Stephe miss her ninth birthday party. Intelligent, irreverent spoken-word from contemporary storyteller Stephe Harrop.
Suitable for audiences aged 14+.
