Ursula is a dynamic and engaging storyteller. She brilliantly uses the skills of the fireside teller and the Ursula at the beech tree 2014urban myth maker to address much bigger issues. Nonetheless her high energy performances are always hugely entertaining. Ursula is a warm hearted tornado blowing fresh themes and new insights through the always exciting world of storytelling.
