The Mermaid’s Purse
By: Pam Munson Steadman (Lady Amuck, Storyteller)
Once upon a time in the land of nags, pirates, treasure chests, devils, hills, ducks, marshes...
Hi Steph
I've told stories to children at Children's Hospital in Bethesda, MD, as well as in Singapore at Raffles Hotel at a benefit for leukemia.
What children enjoy the most in every environment...including the above...is giggling...fun stories...
Pam Munson Steadman is a writer and storyteller ("Lady Amuck") who lives with her husband and wiley dog, Edie, in Virginia.
She began her career as a storyteller in Ashburn, Virginia, sixteen years ago.
She has entertained children and adults dressed up in a red silk gown and cape, wearing a tiara and curlers, and carrying a "magitch" wand and story bag full of puppets and magical tricks.
Pay close attention to 'The Lady' as she turns a tiny stuffed gecko into one several times its size while blabbering gibberish words and waving her wand about her audience! Lady Amuck once found a real gecko on her toothbrush and now teaches everybody a song she wrote titled "There's a Gecko on My Toothbrush!"
Meet "Captain Kidd-U-Knot" and his merry interactive crew aboard about to walk the plank!
Travel the waterways with "Clip and Clop," a pair of wooden shoes who become lost from one another. Clop gets the adventure of a life time as it wanders throughout Europe meeting alluring French ballet slippers, grumpy British wellies, sharp high heels, and bellowing Texan boots!
"Melanie Mermaid" tells tails of The Outer Banks and her beloved purse.
Hear the adventures of "Elephant, Croc, and Toad" as they make mischief along an African river!
OY! Lady Amuck's house is way too small! It just might be the right time to meet "The Vise Voman!"
She also teaches a workshop titled, "Becoming YOUR Story!" A workbook is available...please contact me.
Formerly an elementary teacher, Pam also taught drama overseas, as well as being founder of many writing groups in the states, England, and Singapore. Her family was lucky enough to live in England for four years and Singapore for eighteen months.
While in Singapore, Pam was privileged to be asked by Singapore General Hospital to entertain (as "Lady Amuck") at Raffles Hotel for a benefit for children suffering from leukemia and lymphoma. It was an extremely moving experience, one that touched her heart tremendously. She still thinks about those precious children and their families. She has also entertained at the children's unit at Bethesda Hospital in Bethesda, MD.
She has acted out her interactive stories in Virginia, Singapore, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Georgia...at fun fairs, schools, hospitals, book stores, theaters, birthday parties, hotels, summer activities on The Outer Banks, and more.
Pam is currently in the process of writing a book concerning memoirs of her family's hilarious exploits as expatriates in a soon-to-be book titled "England Misses Me!"
While living in Savannah, Georgia, Pam wrote "The Hannah Savannah Series for Children... "Hannah Savannah Finds the Missing Key," " Bully for Hannah Savannah!," and "Hannah Savannah's Favorite Tales. "
Her purpose was to delight tourists concerning the adventures of a local ten-year-old girl living in a row house in downtown Savannah.
To this day, many teachers and students are using the book to teach diversity, tackle bullying, and for use in teaching creative writing to children.
Pam's written short children's stories and poems in The Public Pamphlet (NJ), and essays concerning expatriate life in The American (England).
"And Though My Heart Has Wings..." is a screenplay in the working, and Pam's working on a comedic play about five unique woman called "Board Hussies."
A collaboration with Los Angeles entertainer and songwriter, Peter Himmelman, puts Pam's lyrics to her son's title for a country western song, "Bobbing for Apples in a Tub of Moonshine." Peter Himmelman is polishing off a rough draft of the music at this moment.
Once upon a time in the land of nags, pirates, treasure chests, devils, hills, ducks, marshes, beaches, lighthouses and much more, there lived a lovely fair-haired young maiden by the name… Continue
