Myths and Legends

In a certain high street bookshop recently we were amazed by the amount of literature that is being produced about Vampires. From as far back as 1897 when Bram Stoker produced his classic novel Dracula – to the latest craze about vampires, spawned by the fabulous Twilight series being read, watched and discussed all over the world, what is it about mythical creatures that we have always found so compelling? Not that we here at  Act On Info Towers are easily distracted, but after being talked into reading the Twilight books, we have lost several hours of our lives pondering the merits of Vampire versus Werewolf. Throughout the world there is a rich history of myth and legends telling tall tales about all kind of fantastical creatures like vampires including mermaids, ogres, ghosts, witches and pirates.  From Beowulf to King Arthur to Icarus, if you are studying the topic of Myths and Legends with your class this term, we would love to help you bring these legends to life. Think about introducing or concluding the topic with a Myths and Legends Play in a Day, assembly or drama workshop.  We promise not to bite..
