Tistou of the Green Thumbs

Master storyteller Ashley Ramsden will tell the French classic peace children’s story, Tistou of the Green Thumbs by Maurice Druon. Meet a boy whom school sends to sleep, a boy with magical green thumbs, whose father owns a gun factory, a boy who transformed the world. Tistou’s name deserves to be celebrated by anyone who cares about the Earth. A tale for our time…

Ashley Ramsden has travelled the world for 50 years with one-man storytelling shows for all ages, workshops and performances of sacred poetry. He founded the School of Storytelling in 1994, the longest running centre of its kind which has trained people from all walks of life.
