Storyteller Deb Winter has won the hearts of audiences across Wales & the UK with her energetic & diverse shows, from her powerful tale of addiction in ‘The Red Shoes’ through to her quirky, humorous ‘Refried Fairy Tales’ (Grimm’s classic stories re-imagined for the modern princess). She tells beautifully-crafted, compelling stories, often working with intuitive, improvising musicians to create an artistic whole, a weaving of words and music.
Deb has been described as having ‘a winning mixture of warmth, high energy, irrepressible humour and a certain something that quivers between originality and eccentricity’. Despite leaning towards laughter, she’s not afraid to sound the depths of human nature and she tells the stories of our human tragedies with genuine compassion and empathy.
