Parsival and the Grail

with Dr. Martin Shaw

You're invited to experience the epic telling one of the oldest and most luminous myths in the European imagination.

The story begins with a boy raised in the deep forest, sheltered from the world by a grieving mother. When he stumbles into the Grail Castle and witnesses the suffering of the wounded Fisher King, he fails to ask the one question that could heal everything. What follows is years of exile, wandering, and unraveling - until compassion finally cracks him open enough to find his way back.

Recorded live during WILD MOUNTAIN in May 2025, gathered in a yurt in the Highlands of Victoria, Canada, this intimate four-day telling by mythologist Dr.Ā Martin Shaw is also a masterclass in the art of storytelling, rites of passage, and the difficult art of being human.

With his blend of deep scholarship, trickster humor, and hard-won wisdom, Shaw brings this ancient storyĀ  urgently, unmistakably alive.
