The Red Bird and Death - Sept/Oct 2012
Come shelter from the night in the warmth of a rustic tavern in the heart of Melbourne. Take your drink in hand and hear the Storyteller as she weaves tales both beautiful and horrid of strange adventures in faraway lands.
Hear stories of murderous spirits lurking in forests and gamblers who attempt to cheat the devil, the mysterious hanging of the criminal in the town square and the last journey of a grandfather's wonderous shoes.
Be inspired by the grisly adventure of two courageous young lovers and face the inevitable visit of Death itself. An intimate experience of story, music and puppetry for all ages.
"The creative density of this show was impressive. The best word to describe The Red Bird and Death is charming…both in the sense of bringing joy and enchanting us with its magic. Roslyn Quin was a shining presence exuding warmth, wisdom, and youthful good-humour. This show is already selling out, so buy tickets immediately."

"If your favourite childhood stories walk on the wilder side, you’ll relish Roslyn Quin’s tales of monsters, crooks and devils set to music and puppetry. "
