Donna Washington / Storyteller

Donna Washington is an award-winning author, master storyteller, and multicultural folklorist who has been sharing stories for thirty-seven years. Her amazing vocal pyrotechnics and dynamic physicality make her stories come alive and enthrall audiences from four to 104. Donna will introduce you to some of the characters who will feature in both the family performances and the adult oriented shows she offers. You’ll meet the witch from Hansel and Gretel as a child, the ugliest woman in Christendom, peek into a graveyard under the full moon, visit Donna’s great grandparents in segregated Texas, and encounter a frog who is sure he is the largest creature on the pond! In fifteen minutes, she will move you through laughter, suspense, fear, and wonder as she shares a taste of each of these shows with you. If you can be captured by a brief glimpse, imagine what can happen with a full hour!
