- Sets of British and Celtic traditional tales support interpretation of UK collections. From rarely heard legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table to Jack tales, ancient yarns of mountain, marsh and wood, to the magical Legend of the Rollright Stones at the heart of England
- Adding value to visitor experiences at international exhibitions, Chloë offers the wit, warmth and wisdom of traditional tales from many cultures around the world.
Lakes heave with giant snakes and dragon kings. Vengeful deities unleash flood, fire, earthquake - and man-eating hounds. Snowfields throng with ice giants and grumpy old women. Eccentric philosphers, doomed sun gods and lovelorn thieves roam the desert. Survival can depend on a horse, a wolf or a single grain of rice.
Chloë brings the past alive, vividly lacing fiction with historical fact.
This is a performer who has worn chain mail and wielded a sword; ridden hard through heath and high water; slept under the stars. She's walked bush and jungle, hidden from sunscorch and sand. She knows how fast a princess can't run in a heavy brocade gown - and the relief of back support from tight lacing! She knows castles inside out. She's been nearly trampled in the tiltyard, and she's impressive taunting besiegers from the battlements...
