Mara Menzies
Mara Menzies is an award-winning performance storyteller. She is the author of Blood and Gold, a novel exploring the legacy of colonialism through myth and fantasy. She draws on her rich, dual Kenyan/Scottish cultural heritage, fusing ancient and modern in an intoxicating storytelling experience.
Mara works with a wide range of audiences but her focus is with children of nursery and primary school age. She has told stories in schools, libraries and clubs across Scotland, at the Scottish Storytelling Centre, and has performed two storytelling shows during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, both of which have received rave reviews.
