Two voices. One story. You choose. We leap.
A Busy Week!
In the first week of August we'll be performing three shows, our busiest yet. Pick your poison - come to Simprov on Tuesday for a wild eclectic night of impro, or come to the legendary Tales At The Tavern on Wednesday for classical storytelling, or finish the week at the chill Charing Cross Library where music, song, and poetry are all welcome. All the info is here x

Elephant Tales
Over a sweltering weekend in July, First Time Tales were made to feel very welcome at the community storytelling club Elephant Tales in Elephant & Castle, South London. Lots of fun stories were shared, including a terrific Bulgarian folktale of celestial marriage, by the skilled Francesca Mackenzie.
As for First Time Tales, we found ourselves in a Heathrow departure lounge with serpent-haired Medusa whose skill in organisation proved irresistible to the goddess of love herself, Aphrodite!

The Very First Time
David and Colette are delighted to say that First Time Tales' debut performance at the Fireside Folktales Fringe in London was a resounding success!
Between us, the audience and First Time Tales discovered cuddly hairy monsters, an elegant man who clung to trees in a decidedly spooky manner, a merman of impressive self-awareness when it came to affairs of the heart, and a drummer who somehow brought forth ecstatic music when she was lost, alone, and without her instruments.
We are currently making plans for our next outings, you can stay in touch with us by joining our mailing list.

First Time Tales: the improvised story show
Be part of a story created before your very eyes! Told like the tales of old, experience a story as it's discovered for the very first time. First Time Tales brings out stories of love and excitement and laughter, of deception and tragedy and revenge, of recognition and healing and triumph, woven from the threads brought by YOU the audience. Your collaboration ensures that every moment is happening right here, right now, for the very first time.
