The Fairytaler TM

For the past twenty years I have produced my original Fairytaler theatre shows for stage and cable television, starring as the Fairytaler, the storyteller. In the productions, I weave a cast of children and family members from audiences across the country at schools, festivals, and special events. I designed the costumes. Dressed in gowns and jewels, "I live in a castle down under the sea, and only come up from the sea, when it's time to tell fairytales!" My website is www.thefairytaler.com
