Violence. Rewards...These are just some of the things that Storyteller Sean Buvala tackles from those "fairy tales" you think you know. But when it comes down to it, you really don’t have a clue what’s buried in those tales. Along with stories of real life, Irish tales and others, Sean dishes it out good and bad. Find out why an angry fairy can ruin your day.
 Kindra Gayle, another regular, appears again. She has 14 years of storytelling experience in 25 years of living. She says, "I like wearing big sunglasses so that if someone driving down the street were to look in my car and wonder "Hm, I wonder what kind of person she is..." their question would be easily answered -- She’s the kind of person who wears big sunglasses. "
