Music
Ruth Cooke is a singer-songwriter in the one-woman-and-her-guitar folk-acoustic tradition. Her subject matter defies easy categorisation, ranging from serious to irreverent, with no aspect of life off limits to her analytical and poetic eye.
Expect the unexpected!
Storytelling
As with all traditional oral storytellers, Ruth’s words are neither scripted nor read, but are freshly minted at each telling with the listeners' response fuelling the teller’s creativity. The traditional stories of the world in all their diversity continue to be a rich vein of wisdom and amusement for audiences of all ages.
