Recommendations

“I first met Sonia at Bleddfa Storytelling Week, where she enchanted an audience of seasoned storytellers with an adventure told with mystery and passion. Sonia is equally passionate about sharing the art of storytelling, and has established the Caravan of Storytellers in the heart of London. A creative hub for storytellers to share their stories with an appreciative audience, the Caravan is also a place to practice, and Sonia is equally skilled in teaching. She is insightful and supportive, and knows how to bring out new qualities in her colleagues’ that enhance their performance. I really recommend Sonia both as a performer and as a facilitator. ” Elizabeth Heren

“Sonia has really good judgement about stories and story-telling. Her feedback is perceptive and accurate but encouraging. She is not only a most nourishing and encouraging person, I have also been very impressed with her integrity, energy, dedication and commitment. While wonder stories are clearly close to her heart, I have also seen her work with great versatility, meeting the client's brief effectively while making quite delicate judgements about the material.” Gregory McCormick
