About Us…
Once upon a time…
There were
two storytellers – Maggie Weber and Susan Samm.
One day...
Maggie and
Susan discovered their shared love of the oral tradition of storytelling whilst
working together in early year’s education.
This led to
the pair journeying on a quest to develop their storytelling skills to
professional performance standards.
Naturally,
this development led to a wider demand of the duo’s storytelling talents and
inspired them to form StoryRoots in the Spring of 2004.
Continuing the
adventure…
Working as
a team, StoryRoots present a dynamic and interactive storytelling style that
has gained them recognition as one of the region’s leading storytelling companies.
And then something else
happened…
Maggie
and Susan were frequently asked if they would / could pass on their skills to
other early year’s workers. As a
consequence StoryRoots have developed successful storytelling workshops for a
range of settings.
(See
workshop page for details and dates of future workshops)
And so they are living
happily ever after…
StoryRoots
love the work they do. They perform extensively in their home county of Bedfordshire and frequently travel
further afield to present both performances and storyteller workshops.
Maggie and Susan are founder members of the Bedfordshire storytelling club ‘Fibs and Fables’.
