Featuring local Irish-legend storytellers and a national teller from Hawaii, the theme of the evening is "Stories from the Isle and Island: Ireland and Hawaii."
"It's great fun to be able to blend the St. Patrick Day theme with a teller directly from the Aloha festival as part of our regular monthly 'Storyteller.net @ Borders' night we have on the third Saturday of the every month. This is just one more way we're continuing to reach out to the community with some of the best in adult-level storytelling," states Sean Buvala, the Director of Storyteller.net. "It's really been our goal to bring this age-old aft form to the West Valley's performing arts events.
We've had a very positive year of storytelling and look forward to continuing into 2007 as well."
The evening program, like all of the "Storyteller.net @ Borders" events, is geared toward adults, teens and tweens.
