Traditional Stories

Theatrical adaptations featuring traditional storytellers

Co-created by Peace Akintade and Louise Seidel

​

Our first storyteller was at the Saskatoon Fringe.

​

Nigerian, traditional storyteller Aderonke Oyefuga Soyemi from the Yoryba tribe shared stories of balance, harmony and respect for others and the earth.  Her daughter, Deborah Oyefuga, provided live translation. Her sons danced.  It was an honour to host this talented family!
