Stories from
David England's Repertory

Here is a collection of some of my favourite traditional tales, retold in my own words, plus some of my original stories.
From time to time, more of my stories will appear on this webpage. So, please make this one of your favourite sites and visit me often.

My most recent story is a Lancastrian folk tale.

Lady Sybil and the Milk White Doe is the story of a woman who felt drawn more and more to becoming a woman wise in the lore of the land.

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.  This is a cracking good seasonal story. It is such a long story in the original, I have written my version to be told in 30 minutes. I also offer a shamefully iconoclastic, but child-friendly, version of the story, Sir Haywain and the Green Cabbage.   

Mabon ap Modron.  The Autumn Equinox is for some the festival of Mabon ap Modron. Here is the story.

The Horse of Power.
Ride with the young archer to edge of the world, where the red sun rises in flame from behind the blue sea, and share his time of trial.

Vasilisa and Baba Yaga is a rite of passage story; to get fire, Vasilisa must journey through the woods to the dreaded Baba Yaga.

The Remembrants.Troubling dreams and strange events, what stirs in the uncharted heart of the kingdom? 

The Tiger and the Strawberry. An entertaining tale about the meaning of life, reputedly told by the Buddha.

A Woman Made of Salt. A deeply spiritual story.

The Girl Who Loved to Dance. One of my original stories, written to be told with dance and music.

Pearl of Wisdom is a very different rendering of the popular campfire story, 'The Woman Who Had Two.'

The Juniper Tree, my retelling of Grimms' horror story, a dark and powerful tale of a hated child.

The Princess. One of my original stories, it defies description, so just read it. Please.

The Warrior is a beastly oriental tale.

St Corentin & the Golden Fish, a gutsy spiritual story about grace and soul.
