<\/a><\/p>\nThe stories were based on a string of lies. But instead of trying to deceive the audience, Albo revelled in the \u00abpure fiction\u00bb of the stories and the simplicity of oral narration. This was the storyteller\u2019s first visit to London, who travels the world with this stories from Ireland, to Australia and Brazil.\u00bbBetween a person telling a story and others listening, there is a personal and very intense contact. It generates a dynamic that we are all in the same, everyone is included and there is a very large connection through the word,\u00bb says Albo.<\/p>\n
\u201cComing to London has been a very beautiful and very enriching experience. The link was Spanish, with children of different levels and backgrounds. It has been very nice to see kids with whom I shared the word, the thread of the story and the narrative,\u00bb says Albo, after a three-day tour in the British capital in which he also took his storytelling to Parkwood Primary School and the Ca\u00f1ada Blanch Spanish School.
\nAlbo considers himself a \u2018word tamer\u2019 with 25 years of experience. Everyday, he submits words to \u00aba curious and exhaustive training\u00bb. In fact, he piles them up, he orders them, makes them into turrets, redoubles the corners, he scours the adjectives, and then finally adjusts them.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not an easy job, but he laughs a lot and takes delight in his work; sees beauty in the nooks and crannies and intricacies of the stories that form around him. And he knows that ultimately, words are never really what they seem. What\u2019s left unsaid is often as important as what\u2019s said.<\/p>\n Back in seventh grade, Albo won the story contest of his class. They gave him a rubber ball and a magnetic set. It was the start of nurturing his talent. He did not stop writing stories and in 1994 he began to recount them out loud.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
