About Doria
A Cambridge native and professional Storyteller, Doria creates individualized programs of folktales from around the world, for dynamic performance in classrooms, book stores, festivals, libraries and private parties. Her style of performance is 'dynamic': she produces numerous silly sound effects and uses her whole body to tell stories - and she encourages audience participation!

Doria particularly enjoys telling trickster tales and spooky tales from many different cultures. Her stories come from Nigeria, Japan, Ireland, Native America, Korea, Ghana, Scandinavia, France and many other marvelous places. She also does residency programs in schools and day care centers for children as young as 3 or as old as 12, in which she works with students for anywhere from one week to an entire semester, guiding them through storytelling games and activities, and coaching them to perform their own individualized and collaborative performance projects.
