St. John’s Storytelling Festival Presents: As I Was Saying… The Art of Recitation in Newfoundland and Labrador

 St. John’s Storytelling Festival Presents: 

As I Was Saying… The Art of Recitation in Newfoundland and Labrador 


From Nan Blunden's pantry, to Red Island, to the Big Land, home-grown recitations speak uniquely of Newfoundland and Labrador. 


On Wednesday, June 24th and Thursday, June 25th at 7:00 pm local time, join us on Zoom for As I Was Saying… a recitation event in the style of a song circle, where storytellers will share their recitations, discuss inspiration, and take questions from the audience. Hosted by storyteller and folklorist Dale Jarvis you are guaranteed a peek into the history of the province, insight into the art form, and more than a barrel of laughs.
