Styorytelling Sessions 1act – The Performers Inc

Storytelling sessions 2026-2027

A native English-speaking actor and teacher brings every character to life — through voice, physical theatre, acrobatic movement and original songs sung live. 55 minutes entirely in English, dynamic and participative, in which the audience does not watch the story from the outside: they live it. No special venue required. A school hall, courtyard or classroom will do. The performer brings his own sound equipment. Each session includes a teaching pack for use before and after the show. The aim: natural, spontaneous exposure to English — the same way a mother tongue is learned.
