Are you fluent in a language besides English? Telling stories in a blend of two tongues can be a fascinating and effective way of exposing listeners to another language and culture. This hands-on, two-day workshop gives participants the opportunity to discuss the principles of bilingual storytelling and to practice the art. Students may bring their own story material in addition to that supplied by the instructor.

Instructor: Marylyn Peringer has 30-plus years of bilingual experience telling the tales of French-speaking Canada. She is co-Resident Teacher at Storytelling Toronto and has led many courses for our organization as well as for George Brown College.
