Greek Myths & Legends: The Storyteller

Manchester Art Gallery

13 Aug 2010

This FREE event is unticketed so just turn up on the day. However, admission will be on a first come, first served basis, so it is advisable to arrive early. Food will be available from the cafe.

Every Friday of the festival we will be getting our togas out for Heroic Fridays at Manchester Art Gallery. Enjoy some thrilling films exploring Greek myths and legends, then play the hero in an interactive story workshop and get dressed for a quest by making jewellery and headdresses or shields and helmets!

This Friday see Jim Henson’s BAFTA award winning series, The Storyteller, where an old man recounts the tales of Perseus and Medusa, Icarus and Daedalus, Theseus and the Minotaur, and Orpheus & Euridyce to his dog.
