Tales with Tails: How To Make Your Stories Wag!

Get those stories to jump off the page and have a life of their own!  This lively workshop will teach you the art of storytelling using multicultural folktales.  You will have a chance to practice performing and build your skills as an expressive, animated speaker.

Becoming a storyteller will enhance your natural expression, widen your physical animation, and sharpen your improvisational skills. Learn how to really connect with your audience, characters and imagination as you free your internal actor...be a storyteller!
