About The Event
A truly ancient fairytale, 'Little Red Riding Hood' is a timeless story of danger, transformation and heroism.
In this online writing workshop, Bernadette Russell mines the dark heart of this famous tale and invites students to create their own kindred creative pieces. The group explores themes of innocence, cruelty, resilience, lust and appetite, as well as female empowerment, rites of passage, and the abandoned wild self. Students also consider the story's vivid, mythical landscape – one in which animals seduce, enemies come disguised as loved ones, and peril awaits those who stray from the path. Bernadette then gives a retelling of the original story, after which participants are invited to create their own tales using timed guided prompts. Note: you are invited but not obliged to share your work. This is a kind, fun and supportive environment in which to experiment with ideas safely.
Ideal for anyone interested in dark…
