MARJOLEIN ROBERTSON: THE HILLSWICK WEDDING
Marjolein Robertson
Monday 4 August, 6:00pm
A rich and beautiful story from
Shetland, performed by comedian, storyteller and filmmaker Marjolein
Robertson. The story of the Hillsook Weddeen (Hillswick Wedding) is one of
Shetland's best folktales. It takes the listener back to life in Shetland
in the late 1800s, exploring the crofting, fishing and other traditions,
yet there is more to this story than meets the eye as through it we meet
the trows, a creature of Shetland folklore, and with them we go into their
world.
