Storyteller

Marian Licha has performed her storytelling program “A Magical Journey into Latin America” at The Kennedy Center, The National Theatre, The Capital Children’s Museum, The Museum of American History, schools and libraries in the Washington, D.C. area. She has been a guest at the New York’s Kids radio show in NYC.

In “A Magical Journey into Latin America,” Marian shares the Puerto Rican folktale stories of Juan Bobo, her own personal anecdotes, and short bilingual songs in an engaging program that lifts the spirit with humor and life-lessons from the oral tradition.

This cultural experience will enrich your school’s language arts program and entertain students at the same time. Students are encouraged to use their imagination during the performance as Marian brings each character to life by using different voices and animal sounds.
