Bernadette and other Teenage Folk Tales

Fenton Town Hall
Thursday 20 - Sunday 23 March 2025
BSL interpreted performance: Saturday 22 March, 4pm

A trilogy of teenage myth and transformation.

Created with a company of teenagers, Bernadette and other Teenage Folk Tales is a surreal exploration of adolescence, folklore, and the stories we tell to survive the dark corners of growing up.

Spoken word, movement, live music and animation combine to create new worlds where the boundaries between myth and reality blur.

And so, we invite you into a world of storytelling where folklore is not just fantasy, but a necessity in the face of an uncertain future.

A Restoke production. Written by Florence Espeut-Nickless. Co-Created with the Power Project Company

About The Power Project

The Power Project started in February 2024 to build a company of young people interested in creating and performing in a new show. Through workshops in schools, holiday projects and weekly sessions the company now consists of 14 young people aged 13-17 from Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire. This show has been devised with the company, created from their ideas and working alongside a team of professional artists. This is Restoke's first show with a young company!
