Keith Butters- The Lincolnshire story Teller

Keith tells stories about his native home county of Lincolnshire. He has lived in the same cottage all his life except for three years when he was away at college. Brought up on a farm, he understands the joys and sorrows of Lincolnshire rural life.

 His father, Geoff, was a storyteller but did not know it! In other words, Geoff just told us about the experiences of himself, family and friends.

Keith tells a story of Jabez, his great-grandfather, who went courting one winter’s night in South Ormsby. He still has a recording of Geoff telling the story. Keith has a number of Lincolnshire stories including the “Wormsgay Dragon,” “The Buried Moon” and “Jack went to Horncastle Fair.” 

Keith relates Bible stories, for instance, “The King’s Golden Statue”, “The Good Samaritan” The Resurrection” and “Creation.” 

Keith is available to tell stories in schools, festivals, clubs, W.Is., handfasting, weddings and funerals.

Keith works in schools for half or full days. Also, keith leads assemblies. These presentations aim to promote good behaviour and caring for people.
