This tool was developed as part of Cultural Cwtsh, which was an online creative wellbeing hub for the health and care workforce in Wales, created by the Arts Council of Wales in collaboration with artists across the country.
In partnership with the Arts Council of Wales, we’re excited to share this mental wellbeing tool, alongside with many other creative resources, with everyone in Wales!
We all love a funny story…
Hi there!
We are Tom and Ellen and we have been making family theatre in Wales for more than 10 years.
In this video, we share some of our favourite ways to get started telling a story – there are tips, tricks, games and ideas for you to try out on your own.
When we make work, our emphasis is on having fun and looking after ourselves – we always want our creative process to feel silly and playful and we want to share that with you!
We hope to spark your imagination, and inspire you to tell your own funny stories – you don’t need to prepare anything to join in, just bring yourself!
Thanks for watching!
Tom and Ellen
