The West London Storytelling Unit at that time comprised Ben
Haggarty, TUUP and Daisy Keable.
|
|
The West London Storytelling Unit (W.L.S.T.U), was founded in
1981, by members Ben Haggarty, Godfrey Duncan and Daisy Keable
and based in an Afro-Caribbean Youth Centre, the Priory in Acton.
The members worked together and as solo artists, telling stories
mainly in school and community contexts in London. Over time
performances for adults also began to be developed. In 1983
W.L.S.T.U became The Storytelling Unit with Marva Cumberbatch,
Pomme Clayton, Daisy Keable. In or around 1985 Daisy Keable and
Marva Cumberbatch left the Storytelling Unit, at which point Ben
Haggarty rejoined and worked with Sally Pomme Clayton for a brief
period before the group was disbanded. The increased interest and
demand for storytelling performance for adults led to the
formation of The Company of Storytellers in 1985.
