FALL
November Guild Show
2pm & 4pm Saturday, Nov. 8th
A rustle in the dark ~ a bump in the night!
There, but not there. Ghosts, opaque, a shadow of what once was. Sounds heard - or imagined? A splash, a rustle, a pale glow in a stagnant pool. Wedding vows kept in life - and beyond.
As nights grow long, the veil between this world and the next grows thin. Stories in the waning light for adults and mature teens from Barb Fankhauser, Eric Foxman, Steven Henegar, and Anne Penfound.
About the tellers:
Barb Fankhauser
In 1989 Barbara Fankhauser joined the Portland Storytellers Guild and discovered that there was a whole world of people telling stories for the pure love of it. She has been telling stories in informal and formal setting ever since.
Eric Foxman
Eric Foxman is a long time member of the Portland Storytellers Guild. He brings humorous stories to life, brings humor to his own life, and dabbles in folk tales with special meanings. Eric especially likes to share stories of historical events and people: what we didn’t learn in school but aren’t too old to learn about now. Join Eric this early winter evening for three people’s stories that will inspire you, also.
Steven Henegar
Steven celebrates the wonderful variety of stories that we use to share our lives. In a vibrant mix of original and traditional narrative, Steven calls up the everyday and the fantastic to discover feelings and experiences that connect us all. Truth & Lies mined from a long life looking around.
Anne Penfound
Anne Penfound, Portland Storytellers’ Guild member since1966.
Early on Anne discovered that Stories breathe; they change, evolve,
depending on the listener. Her stories that display a quirky British humor,
facial expressions, grand gestures, and very English vocabulary have been
intriguing her audiences ever since.
Anne declares a special penchant for ‘Things That Go Bump in the Night’
