She is a born storyteller."Lurelu MagazineTristan and Iseult:In turn, erotic passion and murderous rage define this medieval saga that keeps audiences enthralled right up to its tender and enchanting conclusion. The story begins with the affair leading to Tristan's birth. Then comes a kidnapping, sea voyages, a sword battle, the death of a dragon, a young woman's fury, a love potion and a forbidden passion that compromises the lovers' honour and puts their lives in grave danger. Mark, King of Cornwall, his wife Iseult and his nephew Tristan weave their way through danger and delight, accompanied by a motley crew of dwarfs, servants and lepers who fill the tale with colour and humour.. 352 MacLaren StreetOttawa, ON K2P 0M6..
