A faerie will dance in the moonlight capturing lovers and turning them into dust.  A camel will wander by eating rotten vegetables out of a box in Tunisia, and all the moose will go missing in New Brunswick.  All of these things will be dangerously related.  Lift the veil to the faerie world in an enchanted evening of stories, laughter, and magic.

Tales for the Telling, Stories for Adults, is pleased to feature Marie Bilodeau on its professional stage.

Marie Bilodeau is the author of seven books, the latest being presented as a "chap" book in an electronic format.  She is taking a page from Charles Dickens' playbook and is publishing her latest novel serially.  She has been nominated for an Aurora award and has won the Bronze Medal in the Foreward Book Awards.  Her short stories have appeared in several magazines and anthologies, and her storytelling is renowned.

Marie is a native Montrealer who is a professional storyteller who usually tells adaptations of fairy tales and myths, as well as her own original stories.  She has performed in multiple venues across Canada including Ottawa's National Arts Centre.  This is her first performance in the Oceanside area.
