The Fireside Folktales Fringe is Officially Open for Applications!

Exciting news - we’ve just taken another big step forward with The Fireside Folktales Fringe, which now has a full Participants’ Information Pack and Application Form both live!

If you’re a performer, storyteller, theatre-maker, or creative of any kind who loves myths, legends, folklore, or classic tales, this is your chance to be part of something special. The festival will take place in and around Barnes Pond, SW13, on 23rd & 24th May 2026, with a special launch event the weekend before on Saturday 16th May.

We’re looking for bold, imaginative work that celebrates the power of story - no big budgets or tech wizardry required, just creativity, connection, and heart.

The pack includes all the details about venues, registration, ticketing, and how to apply. We can’t wait to see what stories you’ll bring to Barnes next spring!

And to all our generous supporters and donors - a huge thank you, once again. 🙏 Your contributions are helping us turn this dream into reality and I'm so very grateful that our fundraising total continues to rise, with another extremely kind donation of £30 this very morning!

If you’d like to take part in the festival – as a performer, a volunteer, a sponsor, or in any other way – please get in touch via shadowroadproductions@gmx.com. We’d love to hear from you!

In the meantime, do stay tuned for more updates, as we continue building the festival and reaching out to performers, partners, and sponsors. This particular story is just beginning…✨
