Ohio Order for the Preservation of Storytelling
Supporting the art of storytelling throughout Ohio.
Eric Wolf, known in the storytelling community as Brother Wolf, will lead a Summer Storytelling Intensive and Workshops June 3–7, 2011 in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Designed for storytellers at all levels of ability, each day will offer workshops that focus on attitude, skills, or business aspects of storytelling. Participants can choose to attend for part or all of a day, several days, or the entire five days.
Intensive workshops, which focus on improving both confidence and ability, will take place on Friday and Monday. Participants in these six-hour sessions will tell stories and receive supportive feedback from others in the group.
Each of the other days offers two three-hour workshops. Saturday’s workshops include “Building Confidence in Performance” and “Unlocking Your Creativity Through Fairy Tales.” Workshops on Sunday include “Freeing Comedy in Storytelling” and “Responsible Scary Stories."
Tuesday will be an all-day session for professional storytellers devoted to the “Business of Storytelling,” with an emphasis on making a living through the art. In addition to his own storytelling, Brother Wolf has interviewed more than 120 professional storytellers for his podcast The Art of Storytelling, which has had more than 400,000 downloads. Through his own experience and that of others, he brings a wealth of expertise to artist-centered marketing.
Brother Wolf has created an original, seven-hour fairy tale sequence, Fairy Tales Forever, reworking traditional fables and tales into modern settings. He has also recorded stories of growing up as a dyslexic child in New York. In addition, he has a one-man show based on Charles Dickens’ classic, A Christmas Carol. His collaborations include work with the Smithsonian Institution in the national capital, the American Museum of Natural History in New York and many other places...
