Storytelling is an ancient art form. As an award winning story teller, Mary's interactive stories encourages participants to become part of the tale, through repetition, choral speaking, action, song, or assuming a specific character. "I believe that, Storytelling helps children and adults to take their first steps toward comfortable public speaking, so that each unique voice can be heard"-Mary Shea Rys.
"Our Irish Heritage Society celebrated our Celtic Harvest Diner with a showcase of storytelling by Mary Shea Rys. Mary's stories combined lighthearted, energetic and mythical tales with well-researched, ancient stories of our Irish culture. The addition of music and song added depth and atmosphere to the tales. Each story was well rounded, unique and brought us all together in the love of our common homeland. She held the almost 100 people spellbound with rapt attention and delight. Mary provided us with an extraordinary evening we will long remember."
