FORMAT: Open Telling (5-6 minutes) followed by Featured Tellers:
Robin Bady continues her exploration of our contemporary connection to fables. She comes to storytelling from a long line of performers, storytellers, painters, writers, and other liars, near-do-wells and thieves! She wears many hats, including writer, actor, director, educator, musician and storyteller and performs throughout the USA and Europe. Her explorations include collaborations with musicians and visual artists. She is the Director of the Storytelling Center of New York City.
Terri Campion: In The Saint Therese Kiss, a young girl prepares for her first kiss in the back seat of a shiny green Volkswagon bug while struggling with her life long desire to become a saint. This short piece is a trailer for Terri's full length solo play - Following the Yellow Brick Road Down the Rabbit Hole, in which she portrays eighteen different characters and explores the question: Is there a way to have a fun and happy life and still get into heaven when you die? The work evolved from a collection of memoirs laced in a veil of fiction.
Terri is an Actress, Playwright, Teaching Artist and the recipient of the 2007 Jerry Kaufman Award for Excellence in Playwriting. Her work has been published with Meriwether Publishing, Smith&Kraus and The Great Kills Press. Terri also offers solo show workshops and coaching. http://www.terricampion.com
