A Physical Comedy Show that will get people in your library,

What is Balloon Storytelling.
Hi There, I am Steven Dickinson aka the Amazing Zoomalata. I am your 2022 Summer Reading Program Visual Storyteller.
Balloon Storytelling is basically telling stories while wearing costumes. Only instead of normal costumes being made out of cloth. The costumes are made out of balloons.
.
Will the kids just be sitting around just listening to a story?
No way! This is an interactive show?
There will be opportunities for the children to come up and help tell the stories.
We like to call them actors. They get to wear the costumes and are the only ones who get to take home balloons.
The rest of the audience gets to make sound effects and even help build a story of their own.
I will be directing stories as narrator and sound effects director.
This is a unique program that I guarantee your kiddos will love.

“We had twice as many children come to our performance program this year then we did last year. And I’m glad we did because the kids had a great time, the parents who came had a great time. It was interactive and involved things from around the world. Thank you so much Steve [The Amazing Zoomalata], it was wonderful.” Ann, Suring Public Library, One World Many Stories Theme
