Hi! I'm Rachael Harrington & I'm so glad you're here!

I'm a performance storyteller, writer & media maker who playfully engages people of all ages in the very serious business of  
imaginative thinking + living.
   
I do this by creating storytelling performances, workshops, and media that use narrative, interactive elements, and a sprinkle of magic to 
bring folk and fairy tales to life.
