Tip of the Tongue is a new Leeds based theatre company that works collaboratively to produce engaging theatre that is universal in its essence. By presenting traditional storytelling in a theatrical context, we want to give voice to true stories of our own, individuals close to us, and our audiences. With the addition of live instrumentation and moments of improvisation, we wish to create a unique genre of performance that leaves a lasting impression on our audience.

If Walls Could Talk...

World Premier of 'If Walls Could Talk' was performed in C aquila Studio at the Edinburgh Fringe 4th-29th August 2011:

Out of a suitcase come fascinating tales of shame, sorrow, and side-splitting wit, punctuated with live music. Perhaps, the power of a story lies in the simplicity of its telling? With opportunity for one guest storyteller per show to tell us their own true tale, our audience is invited to indulge with us in the memories and emotions that are provoked by telling a story, and will become as captivated as we are with the true tales of real people.

Damp and dreary, the Edinburgh weather wasn’t putting many smiles on Festival-goers’ faces. So Tip Of The Tongue’s production of ‘If Walls Could Talk’ is just the happiness-boost to get people grinning. This bunch of student storytellers are far from damp and anything but dreary, and their short tales are heart-warming and personal without being overly gushy, quite a feat considering the range of issues covered, from ketchup stains on white trousers to watching a family member endure Parkinson’s Disease. Don’t expect the most visually astounding or hard-hitting of performances from this show, but do expect something completely charming. Definitely make the most of this sunny little Festival mini-gem.
