Lost Souls Variations - tales of the dead and the undead.
Featuring Adam Wilson and The Oh-Aissieux
Library Bar Extension, Central Hotel, Exchequer Street, Dublin 2.
Tuesday 17 November. From 8 to 10.30 pm. Doors 7.30.

Following the very warm welcome with which the Lost Souls were received at Halloween, we are delighted to have another chance to offer you our set of unsettling stories about the dead and the undead, with variations to please those who have already seen the previous show.

For this show, we are delighted to announce a collaboration with a group of sketch artists from the Tinderbox creative network, who will draw the storytellers, the audience or the story itself as we perform. Read more about Tinderbox here: http://tinderboxnetwork.blogspot.com/

The Narrative Arts Club was founded in 2005 to promote innovative storytelling for urban young adult audiences in Dublin. Read more here: www.narrativeartsclub.com
