Donald Davis and Carmen Agra Deedy return to Indianapolis to kick-off our performance season. Drawing on the fertile roots of the Appalachian storytelling tradition and enriching the experience with colorful tales of family idiosyncrasies, Donald Davis is a nationally acclaimed master of the art of storytelling. Smithsonian Magazine says Davis is "a master of timing" and he has his audience "hanging on his every word." According to The New York Times, "His stories often left listeners limp with laughter at the same time they struggled with a lump in the throat."
Carmen Agra Deedy is an award-winning storyteller and New York Times best-selling author who was born in Havana, Cuba. In 1960, she emigrated from her homeland during the Cuban Revolution, a move that has profoundly affected her life and her work. Deedy's storytelling blends humor with heartfelt stories of her family's journey to acclimate to the American culture. NPR says Deedy is "one of the true American success stories."
Carmen and Donald are also telling Mama Mia! on Friday, September 24 from 7:30 - 9:30 p.m. and Free Range Childhood on Saturday, September 25 from 2 - 3 p.m. for families.
