The Altrincham Storytelling Festival – Press Release

The Alan Forrest Smith Literary Foundation Launches The Altrincham Storytelling Festival June 20-21st

Revealing the Creativity Within Altrincham

Taking place across two curated days this June, The Altrincham Storytelling Festival invites audiences into an intimate programme of theatre, art, books, conversation, performance, and immersive creative experiences.

Curated and produced by Tamara Forrest-Smith, the festival has been created to reveal and showcase the rich creativity that exists within Altrincham — bringing audiences closer to the artists, writers, performers, and creative voices behind the work.

Rooted in storytelling, the festival blends live theatre, visual art, publishing, discussion, workshops, and shared creative experiences within a thoughtful and carefully curated environment designed to inspire conversation, connection, and artistic discovery.

Festival audiences can expect:

• Live theatre and performance

• Artist talks and panel discussions

• Workshops and interactive experiences

• Illustration and visual storytelling

• Children’s storytelling experiences

• Books, publishing, and new writing

• Opportunities to engage directly with artists and creatives

Altrincham is full of creative talent. This festival is about revealing that creativity — creating an intimate space where audiences can connect more closely with the work and the people behind it.

The festival will take place at OYEZ Arts in the heart of Altrincham, June 20-21st.

Designed as an intimate experience, availability for many events will be limited, and early booking is recommended.
