The Village Square combines live music performance and storytelling. Set in an imagined town some years ago (as all good fairy tales are), The Village Square presents narratives of love and loss, misfortune and mirth, the graceful and grotesque.

Featuring renowned cellist Zoe Knighton, award winning guitarist/composer Robbie Melville, and the charismatic and much-loved Richard Piper as The Narrator, the fables sparkle with the magic of traditional mythology.

In The Fruit Mechanic, the engine of an obnoxious tourist’s thunderous motorcycle is transformed into silence by an artful greengrocer. A Friend Of Yours tells the story of a dog who arrives in The Village and charms everyone before mysteriously disappearing. In One Way Ticket, a stonemason, deafened by the shock of tragic events, builds a bell tower for a flock of birds.

Evocative, enchanting and above all, human, The Village Square is a captivating combination of music and spoken word.
