Could you be Young Storyteller of Wales 2011?     Cymraeg

The competition will take place at 2pm on 9th July on the field at Llangollen International Eisteddfod Family Day. All competitors will receive a half price Family Ticket giving entry for two adults and three children to all the excitement of Family Day - and the chance to be part of it!

Young storytellers between 8 and 18 years old can tell their traditional stories (not longer than five minutes) in Welsh or English or bilingually and compete to take the title of Young Storyteller of Wales 2011. No experience is needed and storytellers may perform as individuals, in a pair or a group of three.

Competitors will be judged by storytellers Ruth Moore Williams and Graham Langley in one of three age categories: 8-11, 12-14 or 15-18 years old. Prizes will be awarded to winners and all entrants will receive a certificate for taking part.

The winner over 15 will become Young Storyteller of Wales 2011 / Storiwr Ifanc Cymru 2011 and will represent Wales at The Young Storyteller of the Year Award in 2012 in Birmingham.
