Teaching and Educational Tool". Workshop description: This Workshop would explore
ways teachers and students could gather stories and use them in educational

would be a Workshop on using movement in storytelling, which is something I
do a lot in my own practice, and have taught to others for a good number of
years. In the Workshop, I use various
aspects of Indian dance, and make postures, gestures, movements of numerous
parts of the body, facial expressions, and mudras (designs made by one's
hands and fingers) parts of the storytelling process. Back to the CSF 2019 Schedule *** Workshop title:
Storytelling and Theatre". Diana Tso is a theatre performer, director, and playwright. This workshop explores creative and fun
ways to access the imagination for the sake of individual and collective
story composition and performance.
