WISDOM & OTHER FOLLIES

About the show:

A sage seeks wisdom from the land of the dead; stuck souls beg for an answer from the One Who Knows All; a girl is kept from knowing anything by being brought up in a barrel, and a prophet knows his desire will be the death of him… but can’t deny himself.

Sarah Liisa Wilkinson brings you myths and folktales of those cursed with knowledge, those blessed by ignorance, and those who should know better – but don’t let that stop them.
