Gav Cross

If you ask them for one of their business cards, it describes Gav as a Storyteller, Creative & Idiot. They are proud to be working on all three of these aspects professionally and personally since the 20th century. Starting out as a Drama & Theatre Studies teacher with a parallel career in community theatre of all sorts. Directing, facilitating, devising & workshop leading. For the last 20 years Gav has been delivering storytelling performance and workshops in schools across the UK.

Gav’s Twisted Tales for Terrible Children went on tour around the UK in 2021, supported by Highlights Rural Touring Scheme & Northumberland Libraries. This lead to an invite back in Autumn with the follow on show: “Tell Tale Twit.”
As well as this, Gav is the ‘Chief Idiocy Wrangler’ for Funny Looking Kids: Comedy Club – Grown up Alternative Comedy for the whole family.
Always looking for new stories to tell and share, Gav can be found on Facebook and YouTube sharing tales with anyone that will listen!
