Who We Are
We are a non-profit orgainzation that has created a unique style of vaudeville storytelling and dynamic workshops that enables children, parents and teachers to celebrate the humor and wisdom inherent in multi-cultural literature. Lorrie Oshatz and Theresa Amy provide exciting performances that put a fresh spin on folk tales, fables and poetry and a variety of workshops and professional development that offer new strategies for learning and teaching. The performances and workshops also enhance literacy and comprehension skills while creating opportunities to build self-esteem and confidence. Our Early Literacy Readiness Project (ELRP) is a program specifically created to develop school readiness for children at preschools and Head Start sites.
What We Do
Our lively story theatre performances use mime, masks, props and costumes to ensure a visually rich and captivating storytelling experience for children of all ages and grade levels. Our workshops offer students the opportunity to learn information in new ways using theatre techniques which develops self-confidence and builds communication and problem solving skills. Each contact with a school or library demonstrates the transformational power of theatre by using language to construct meaning and story to create the bridge that connects us all to the world family.
