IS THIS AN OPEN MIC?No, the stories are collected, developed in dialogue with Amparo Garcia-Crow
The result is a lovely sharing of a story threaded and revealed through the ancient art of 'oral' storytelling. Sometimes they delicately fall a part, sometimes they land beyond our wildest imagination but always they are alive and probably never, ever told exactly that way again. If you want to tell a story too--call Amparo to begin the process. Your story either inspires the theme and/or it finds a mate in one of the upcoming collections. About Amparo Garcia-Crow Amparo is an inter-disciplinary teaching artist who acts, directs, singer who writes plays, screenplays and songs.
