Jenni is a natural storyteller who had me bewitched from the beginning. She brought a humour and playfulness to the stories that gave them life but also gave us a portal into times gone by.
ReWilding Red Riding Hood: Ancestral Tales of Daring and Difficult Women @ DRILL HALL, Mullumbimby, NSW
The Drill Hall, Mullumbimby
Mullumbimby NSW, Australia
Description
Gather in the Drill Hall, Mullumbimby to hear ancient folktales before they were tamed.

After 3 sold out shows with rave reviews for The Brisbane Anywhere Festival in May, 2026, Jenni is taking these tales further afield, starting with her former home town of Mullumbimby. Jenni lived in the heart of Mullum for 16 years. She raised her two children there, told stories at community events, recorded albums and taught storytelling. She also hosted 'Stories in the Club' for 2 years in Mullumbimby and before that, 'Golden Tales' in Brunswick Heads. She is well known to locals and produced five award-winning albums in Nomad Studios in the Northern Rivers.

Testimonials
We are a group of three daring and sometimes difficult women and we were thoroughly entertained by Jenni’s stories. We highly recommend you see this performance while you can.
It was the first time I had attended a storytelling, and Jenni’s talent and creative flair made the show captivating. Would love to see Jenni perform again.
You gave us just enough background and then built the story around the characters as we got to know them. I was absolutely absorbed and imagining and can still see the women washing by the river.
Jenni is a gifted and engaging storyteller and I genuinely recommend becoming immersed in this experience.
It felt vivid and entertaining and wise. I loved the links you made to everyday life and the way you explained archaic terms. Thanks again for one of the best nights out I’ve had in Brisbane.
