    Telling stories since 2006 on stages all over the world, including the Globe Theatre London, Open Eye Theatre Minneapolis, and Fabula Festival Sweden, Clare brings the ancient art of storytelling to contemporary audiences including a recent appearance on the Blindboy Podcast https://shows.acast.com/blindboy/episodes/the-art-of-storytelling

    On the Art of Storytelling podcast, Blindboy said “one of my favourite guests I’ve ever spoken to on my podcast, a professional storyteller, deeply knowledgeable and passionate about storytelling as an art-form and an astounding storyteller”.

    Clare’s work ranges from myth to quantum physics and folklore. She performed for President Mary Robinson, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the writers at the Royal Shakespeare Company. Her festival appearances include Cape Clear Festival Ireland, Beyond the Border Wales, National Storytelling Festival Jonesborough USA, 10 Days in Dublin and many others.

    “masterly storytelling  – all delivered at a pace which meant there was never a dull moment.” Culture Whisper

    “Clare Muireann Murphy’s beautiful lilting Irish voice was in stark contrast to the darkly humorous stories she told us, and her first-rate comic physicality only served to enhance her storytelling.” Everything Theatre
