The series The Storyteller (1987–89) used innovative techniques, with the aid of the wily but affable Storyteller (John Hurt), to draw the audience into the storyworld. Furthermore, the series deliberately sought to retell lesser known, even forgotten, tales that had a more sinister, challenging edge. This chapter, which is informed by interviews with Henson’s daughter, Lisa Henson, who was responsible for the original concept, and producer Duncan Kenworthy, considers the series’ unique visual storytelling, the role of the storyteller and its use of uncommon tales and dark themes. The series is explored in relation to oral and written fairy tale traditions, as well as other screen adaptations, in particular Shelley Duvall’s Faerie Tale Theatre (1982–87). Also foregrounded is the importance of collaborative practice and the creative input of Lisa Henson, Duncan Kenworthy, writer Anthony Minghella and directors, including Steve Barron, is acknowledged as crucial to the series’ originality.","PeriodicalId":51827,"journal":{"name":"Network Science","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147882213","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
