Lemonade and storytelling

Jeanne Hayes and her storytelling class last winter.

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade, right? During the slow times for actors over the past several months I have embraced storytelling, as some of you know. I've been fortunate to find two great master storytellers as teachers, Jeanne Haynes and Kirk Waller at Stagebridge in Oakland. Here I am, front row, second from left, above, pictured with Jeanne's class (see more about Stagebridge at the Stagebridge page on Facebook, where this photo was originally posted). 

See the column at right for more on an upcoming storytelling event featuring several storytellers telling tales with a foreign twist.
