Naceur Charles Aceval was born on the Algerian plateau and grew up in a family of storytellers with a strong Bedouin influence. He has lived in Germany for many years and performs as a professional storyteller, telling the traditional tales he grew up with, as well as Eastern folktales and wisdom tales.
Über den Erzähler:
Geboren in den algerischen Hochebenen, an der Schnittstelle des Nordens und Südens, wo die Nomadenstämme im Frühjahr ihre Zelte aufschlagen und sich die städtische Kultur der Sesshaften mit den Traditionen der Beduinen vermischt, ist Naceur Charles Aceval aufgewachsen mit den Märchen seiner Mutter und Großmutter, beide traditionelle Märchenerzählerinnen. Im Zelt seiner Großmutter hörte er von Klein auf die Nomadenmärchen seines Stammes, der Ouled Sidi Khaled.
Er lebt seit vielen Jahren in Deutschland und hat in seinem Repertoire neben den Märchen seines Stammes auch andere, vorwiegend orientalische Märchen und Weisheitsgeschichten.
Am Mittwoch, den 12. März 2008 schlägt er nun sein Zelt für einen Abend in Dublin auf, wo ihm der "Narrative Arts Club" freundliche Aufnahme gewährt.
Lassen Sie sich verzaubern und lauschen Sie an diesem Abend der Stimme eines authentischen Märchenerzählers!

Jump To Comment: 1From the point of view of a family member of the performer, I am very satisfied with how the evening went.
The room was pretty full (not to say crowded), I think there were no free chairs left.
The audience was attentive and eager to follow Naceur Charles Aceval on his journey to the world of nomadic stories.
The first part of the evening, Naceur told stories of his "soon-to-be-published" book "The man that did not want to die" (German original title: "Der Mann, der nicht sterben wollte") and after a short break continued for another 40 minutes with stories from his nomadic tribe, the Ouled Sidi Khaled of the high plateaus of Algeria.
As far as I can say it in an objective way, Naceur delivered a pretty good performance and should feel confident that on his next visit to Ireland an even bigger audience will be there to listen to his telling.
Great evening!
