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
  • audience participation
  • and a sprinkle of magic to  
bring folk and fairy tales to life.

Need something entertaining but don't want to turn on the screen?
