MU_With Two WingsWITH TWO WINGS
Miami University
Oct. 6-8
Gates-Abegglen Theatre [Oxford]

Directed by Matt Omasta

In a fantasy world where people have wings, Lyf lives an isolated existence. Though loving, Lyf’s parents have strict rules he must follow about avoiding strangers, covering his wings with a cloak, and always observing rule number one: never, ever try to fly. Will Lyf be grounded forever, or will the truth he discovers from a pair of young outsiders empower him to take flight? This coming-of-age story is a bittersweet, yet hopeful, tale that tackles the issue of parental disability with gentleness and grace.

Local Favorite Paul Strickland Will Be Featured at The National Storytelling Festival

MISC_Paul StricklandOct. 5-8, 2023

(Covington, KY) Cincinnati’s favorite storyteller, Paul Strickland, has been invited to tell his tales at the prestigious National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, Tennessee, this October. He is one of twenty national and international professional storytellers who have been selected to perform at the largest and oldest storytelling festival in America. The popular three-day event draws thousands of visitors from all over the globe.

ABOUT THE NATIONAL STORYTELLING FESTIVAL
Every October since 1973, thousands of travelers have visited Tennessee’s oldest town. They come for one purpose–to hear stories and to tell them at the National Storytelling Festival. This celebration of America’s rich and varied storytelling tradition, the oldest and most respected gathering anywhere in America devoted to storytelling, has in turn spawned a national revival of this venerable art.

Paul is also one of the co-founders of the Cincinnati Storytelling Festival which has brought nationally-recognized storytellers including Bil Lepp, Lyn Ford, Sheila Arnold, and Adam Booth to Cincinnati audiences. The Cincinnati Storytelling Festival will be returning for a third year in the Westwood neighborhood of Cincinnati this October 19-21, featuring national storytellers Antonio Rocha and Megan Hicks.
