Join Sara Hurley, Lisa Schneidau, Simon Dell and Jim Causley for an evening of live music and storytelling at Princetown Library.

Chasing Crockern is an exciting new venture that will explore the rich heritage, stories and folklore of Dartmoor. Through a series of events, Villages in Action and storytellers Sara Hurley and Lisa Schneidau seek to connect communities with their historical roots, celebrate the enduring legacy of Dartmoor's folk tales, and re-imagine them in ways that resonate with modern life.

As part of the evening you'll hear a brand new Dartmoor story from Princetown Primary pupils and you'll also have the opportunity to share your own stories and memories with Skylark Radio as part of the project.

Spaces are extremely limited so book now to avoid disappointment!

Generously supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Arts Council England using money raised by National Lottery players, the project will bring a myriad of events, story walks, live performances, talks, and exhibitions to Dartmoor over the next 18 months.
