Our shared identity: Storytelling (24th - 26th October)
Join the storyteller and musician on an interactive adventure aboard the Cutty Sark and explore the stories, superstitions and routines that brought together the crew and created a unique sense of togetherness and collective identity on the ship.

The session will bring to life the aspects of life on board the Cutty Sark that created a "sailor identity" and pride in the ship. There will be stories from China, cap-map anecdotes and interactive musical play based on the day-to-day life of sailors.
