improvised performer/audience creations
- brand new stories created on the spot with the audience illustrating narrative structure

(I'm happy to select stories on the day depending on the audience - age, energy, situation etc - or agree discuss stories that are likely to fit in with your class, subject or school needs. I can select stories and format sessions to fit in with subjects such as Drama or specific topics or issues such as bullying or cultural understanding.)
Special shows:
Outback Stories
Sit down beside the camp fire and have an entertaining yarn with a storyteller. Select from a range of tall stories, yarns and anecdotes to suit the age mix of the audience. Stories provide students with an insight into a range of outback experiences from stage coaches to school sports in the country.
Speech & Drama Students Storytelling Demo
A performance designed to present different story and storytelling styles appropriate for telling to different aged audiences - eg preschool, primary
