For fillers, try jokes & riddles. Halloween is fast upon us & a black kettle filled with them on individual strips lets you choose from your audience somebody to pull 1 out, read it (if kids, read it for them), & move on to the next story.
Great fun ideas in this group!I've been enjoying reading comments.
Halloween is coming soon. Is there anyone who tells spooky stories with masks? Has anyone ever had a problem with kids getting too scared?
THE GUNNIBAT!!! I love it. That will probably stay with them forever. (Now I'll have to control my mind when telling the Gunniwolf, too!)
Share and learn about the use of movement, mask work, props and more in your work.
I've just joined this discussion forum. Since becoming a children's librarian with a lot of preschool or mixed family audiences, I have been branching more and more into use of props - and having fun doing it. I also have great fun using props with…

- Hi Elaine, I was having a look to your homepage and realized that you studied with Tony Montanaro. did we ever meet in the Barn? I wonder.... I studied with him from 1992, first in Germany, then 1995 I came summer after summer to the Celebration Barn until he passed 2002 to an other storyland......I took private classes with him as much as I could. And still he is very present when I work on stories....

Maggie Green said… - Elaine, I was a dancer and then a mime for a number of years. It looks like you use physical movement for your stories. I do so much better when I am moving around in stead of holding a mic. The audience is more engaged when you are moving. Tell us more about your work. Are there any video DVD sorts of places you can be found?
Best wishes, Maggie Green

Jean Armstrong said… - Elaine,
yes, it was so nice to hear from you! I flagged your message so I'd write when I had more time and it got buried. Right now I have to get to bed. Been a very busy week wearing the Speech Pathology hat but got to tell at Granite State Storytelling Swap Concert last Saturday. More later, I hope, I hope! Jean

Mindy Donner said… - Hello Elaine, I'd love to see any of your performances....
regrettably I haven't left San Diego much lately, and intend to. Do you know about Punch performed by the Rougue Ensemble, ending Sept. 7 @ Bootleg Theatre in L.A. They are super visionary/performers. Will you keep me posted when yu perform? Warmly,Yours in the love of movement, Mindy Donner

- David--Congrats on the marriage! I would have to mail it to you as it is very long, but can understand that you might be uncomfortable with that. I believe that you'll be at the NSN (where I was chosen to perform at the Regional Conference--yeah!), and I could bring it then. Just let me know and I'll put it on my "to take to conference" pile.
Cheers
