Pagan folklore is filled with stories of strong, fighting women and goddesses. Join the Embers Collective tonight for a celebration and exploration of these 'Women Warriors'.

In the British Isles, prior to the arrival of Christianity, women were worshipped as the harbingers of all life and were allowed to bear arms and become Druids. They were treated as men's equals and were honoured as much for their minds as for their bodies.

The Embers Collective brings you stories of fighting women and goddesses from around the world, accompanied by the multi-instrumental soundscapes of Tim Karp.

The Embers Collective is a storytelling and music collective based in East London. We bring you old mythology and folklore, along with some original tales and poetry, all set to music in intimate and intriguing venues all over London.
