The Story Tellers Story Troup 2004-2005
The KIDS-N-CO. Story
Troupe is
one of the outreach components of the El Paso KIDS-N-CO. This
group of talented young actors tells stories to encourage literacy,
plant the seeds of imagination, and introduce children to the wonder of
books. A cross section of literature is used which includes but is
not limited to cultural awareness, humor and drama.
The KIDS-N-CO Story Troupe has read stories at Barnes & Noble, the
Bookery, the Mickelson Library at Fort Bliss, during El Dia de los
Ninos at Washington Park, and they were featured in a segment of
the EPISD cable television show "Come Read With Me," where they read
their stories for an audience citywide. Members from the Story Troupe
also performed in "Song of the Unicorn" with the El Paso Music Forum
(Early Music Consort), at the Chamizal National Memorial.
The Mime Company 2002-2005
"Mimes can "say"
things directly, heart
to heart, experience to experience, better than any words. It is
multinational, multicultural, multilingual, and has been a performing
art since the earliest of times. It challenges an actor to "think
outside the box" by recreating a box on stage. Our purpose is to
be a touring company that can pick up and go anywhere without props,
costumes, stage, etc, and entertain all ages."- troupe founder,
Jan Wolfe.
