Welcome to Storytellers Unlimited

Tá failte romhat!

Welcome to Storytellers Unlimited, the online archive that celebrates the two year collaboration of Clare Muireann Murphy and Rab Swannock Fulton; two full time professional storytellers based in Galway on Ireland’s magnificent west coast. They hope you will take time to peruse these pages and listen to a story or two, and that this website proves to be a useful resource for all storytellers, story lovers and educators.

Rab and Clare’s storytelling collaboration ran from summer 2006 to winter 2008. Clare and Rab now work separately around Ireland and the world, building on the skills and experience that came out of that collaboration. This archive contains recordings of their stories; a history of their work together; biographies and contact details.

Storytelling is a living breathing organic artform that grows and changes with each generation. Rab and Clare hope you enjoy the work you find here and feel inspired by it. Feel free to contact them with ideas, comments or possibilities for work. They look forward to hearing from you!
