Storytelling is an ancient art, having its roots in the beginning of articulate expression. It is a reciprocal event, during which words become a living substance that weave a verbal tapestry around teller and audience alike. Our imaginations take shape within the tales, allowing us to collectively unlock secrets, to share an adventure and a vision.
It is powerful magic. It heals us, empowers us. It teaches us that we are never alone.

Mary Rachel Platt has an extensive repertoire of international folk tales and original stories. Using characterization, movement, and gesture, her unique interpretations of these timeless tales are rich with visual and emotional depth.
