Tales from Tasmania
Tales from Tasmania is a collection of true stories exposing some of the state's more unusual social history, tales holding dark mysteries; The Wreck of the Resolution, The Carpenter Murders(Swansea), Catherine Glover's Terrible Tale ( Triabunna), If Walls Could Speak, (Cascades Female Factory) and many others both curious, informative and entertaining.
Miriam is an experienced professional performer, writer and story teller. Give your tour group a fun or interesting thing to do in the evening.
Book a storytelling gig, historic interpretation, or commission a performance piece for your venue or event. "Grannie", or one of her "alter egos" can travel to your venue(educational establishment, restaurant or hotel) or entertain your guests on the bus to or from Richmond! Some are just entertaining like Ivy who cleans the Old Hobart Penitentiary, the nursemaid who does Louisa Anne Meredith's baby nursing or Aggie who does anyone and everyone's washing and ironing. Be entertained- but learn about Tasmania's history as well!
