Summary: From 2012 until 2020 Chris and Isolde worked together creating six series of 'Conversations on Irish Mythology' combining Isolde's linguistic expertise in early Irish and Chris' knowledge of the wider context of world mythology, oral tradion and a life-long passionate interest in history and archaeology. The pandemic brought about many changes and also new, unexpected opportunities. This was certainly true for the 'Story Archaeologists. Isolde has gone on to work with, for example, on-line theatre and wheelchair dance, remote creative writibg events and she has also returned to another of her main concerns, disability politics. Chris has been designing projects for Irish Schools, in conjunction with the Tain March Project and other arts initiatives. The pandemic has also brought about exciting possibilities, allowing her to develop extensive on-line presentations, on the old stories, for schools and libraries, finding ways to break the Zoom 'fourth wall' so that drama in the classroom can still be included.
