Jane Dorfman tells stories for adults and children. She tells celtic stories and stories from the Jewish traditions. Lately, she has become wrapped up in The Arabian Nights and is eager to share those little known stories. 

Cricket Parmalee has two storytelling lives.  In DC she tells primarily for older people, often with memory loss, where she says storytelling is very powerful.  The other life is in Portland OR, home of her alma mater Reed College, whose oral history project she has worked on for over 10 years.  (This year it won the Oral History Association's award for large project.)  She has hosted more than 30 story-gathering sessions and, best of all, she is the project's voice:  she gets to tell the stories back. To contact Cricket for bookings: cricket1415@yahoo.com 

Please join Cricket and Jane Diane for a FUN evening with two storytellers who love storytelling - and have grand stories to tell.
