The 10th Annual Matthew M. Neugroschel Storytelling Event

Evening of Jewish Storytelling

March 3 at 7 pm

In Person at Skidmore College and

via Zoom

This year’s program features local and regional bards telling both traditional and contemporary tales. What they all have in common is that they love storytelling and use it in multiple ways throughout their daily lives. On this night, they share their passion with a wider audience.

The storytellers confirmed so far are Temple Sinai President, event coordinator and emcee Beth Sabo Novik (storyteller, teacher, and massage therapist); Shawn Banner (teacher and graphic artist); Jeannine Laverty (teacher of ESL and storytelling); David Liebschutz (consultant, coach, teacher); Sandor (Sandy) Schuman (storyteller, musician, and educator); Lydia Watkins (student and teacher); and Martina Zobel (teacher and Director of Skidmore Jewish Student Life). Each of our storytellers has teaching in their background and an array of skills and talents that they ultimately use in their storytelling.

Here are some quotes about possibilities:

The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge, but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create people who are capable of doing new things. Jean Piaget

The possibilities are numerous once we decide to act and not react. George Bernard Shaw

We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize. Thich Nhat Hanh

Come hear some of the best storytellers in our area share their favorite stories about this wonderous topic: possibilities. Our storytellers are:

Siri Allison,  Alden (Joe) Doolittle, Eileen Mack, Mary Murphy, Nancy Marie Payne, Beverly Schwartz, Dee Wind and Frank Wind.

At every Story Circle show, superb performers tell rarely heard contemporary and traditional stories celebrating the human spirit. The shows are shared experiences between audience and performer, combining the intensity of a solo performance with the intimacy of a face-to-face conversation. Since 2008, over 4,000 people have enjoyed our shows at Proctors. We hope to see you there!

Tickets: $12 available at Proctors’ Box Office and online .

We meet every second Wednesday of the month in Troy.
