I am a Singaporean storyteller who mostly shares traditional Asian stories in a dynamic and entertaining style.
In this upgraded version of my website I’ve provided
- more info about the why and how I tell
- I’ve added a blog in which I’m recording my experiences as a storyteller and trainer
- more demo videos to give you an idea of me in action
- and richer storytelling resources (story texts and tools to help you tell) which I hope will appeal to teachers, librarians, students and anyone looking to develop their personal storytelling skills.
My own telling draws on my experience as a drama teacher, performing improvised comedy, devising visual theatre with the hearing-impaired, and my love of poetry.
I hope I can be of service to you as a performer, trainer or resource when you need a story.
In May 2011 I was invited to be part of The Esplanade Flipside Festival. I performed a programme of totally spontaneous stories created from audience suggestions. This one - based on an idea from Andrew Wright - was based on 8 pictures drawn by the ‘artists’ you see on stage. This is one of the techniques I use in my Make Me a Storyteller workshop More videos
