- About Me:
- Founder and Executive Artistic Director for The Brothers Grinn, an interactive improvisational storytelling troupe from 1994-2006, I now tell solo. I received a Masters in Oral Traditions in August 2007 and a Masters in Educational Theater in May 2005. A full time Drama teacher, I incorporate storytelling in my classes and in workshops across the country. I've written a play steeped in the oral traditions that is waiting to be produced and I tell many tales that I "begat" during and after my years of Grinn.
The big guy in the pic with me is Bob. He's a Professional Ogre. He tours on his own, eats the unruly, despairs at the lovelorn, and fumigates daily.

Welcome to the site.
I have always enjoyed improv. While at Brigham Young University, one of the most popular groups was Divine Comedy who did improv. You had to arrive early to even get a seat.
If you have read any of the "Fablehaven" books, the author--Brandon Mull, was part of Divine Comedy. We had some classes together for our Communications majors. I saw him again at a Children's Literature forum a week ago.
For the BYU Storytelling Club, we used improv games all the time to work on our skills. Whenever I attend the National Youth Storytelling Showcase in Pigeon Forge, TN, there is a tradition of having an all-nighter of storytelling games on the last night of the event with the youth tellers.
Rixon Lane--who is on this site--inspired an advanced storytelling game called "Tell-off". I have a feeling you would appreciate it.
Perhaps we can exchange improv games.
Until we tell again,

When things slow down a bit, and you're over the bug, maybe we can find time to 'talk' a bit online.
Take Care,
Tom
Looking forward to getting to know you

WHERE did you launch (great!)Bros. Grinn? What a kick that musta been, both to do and to see and interact with.
Both degrees from same university?
I, too, raked in the millions Texas pays its Theatre teachers, still teaching half-days, tho I retired last summer.
I would love, even at this late date, to learn just how, and to what effect, you incorporate telling in your classroom, as well as learn more about your workshops.
Anyway, while we're waiting for your play to revive Broadway, you may as well make the most of this phenomenal site - all that a teller could wish for. An amazing collection of many of the "fabled, legendary" names of storytelling, as well as a mini-horde of young tellers ( and a goodly number of us who fall somewhere in-between) - check out the Main Page, Tellers Pages, Photos, Videos, audios, Forums, Groups (incl. FAQ), etc.
An astounding opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from the best, and from others you've never even heard of - I love the place!
So happy you're here, look fwd to hearing more from (and about) you, and, again - Welcome!
Sincerely,
Tom
