"Ellouise Schoettler’s work reminds us of what is best about being human: deep emotion, strong values, unfailing courage, and gratitude to those who have gone before. An uncommon artist." — Elizabeth Ellis, Storyteller ******************************* “...with vivid imagery, a well-placed pause, and just the right dose of southern charm, Ellouise masterfully draws listeners into her delightful world.” — Amy Saidman, Director, Speakeasy (Washington, DC)
*******************************
A professional storyteller for nearly 20 years, Ellouise can spin all kinds of tales for all ages in venues as intimate as independent booksellers or as bustling as large storytelling festivals.
But... If you want something truly special for your event... consider booking one of Ellouise’s signature history-based New Front Porch programs. Several of Ellouise’s programs that focus on the historical social and political experience of American women have been popular among womens studies and art history university programs. From snippits of dusty attic letters to a first-hand account of Marching on Washington for the ERA, Ellouise’s New Front Porch programs puts audiences to the front row of history by sharing stories of ordinary people living ordinary lives during extraordinary times, and often include otherwise unpublished true stories. By proving the extra-ordinary in the ordinary in these entertaining prorams, Ellouise delivers an important bonus: New Front Porch programs awaken audiences to the importance of their own personal and family stories. Ellouise’s New Front Porch programs are perfect for adult, university and teen audiences. Most can be tailored for grade school assemblies. Go to Ellouise’s website (http://www.ellouisestory.com) for New Front Porch program choices, as well as details about Ellouise’s more more traditional performance options, including folktale programs for adults. Need a workshop? Ellouise’s extensive workshop offerings can stand alone but many also compliment one another. Ellouise’s programs and workshops can be combined for all or part-day off-sites or weekend retreats. Several workshops focus on finding and sharing family stories.
