Description

What happens before once upon a time and after happily ever after? Did Beauty really love the Prince or only the Beast? Who decides what a hero really is? And what's all that fuss about poisoned apples anyway? Join storyteller Laura Packer for an evening of fractured fairy tales that dive into what isn't written, but certainly implied. Meet the characters you know and love (plus a few more) and discover their secret dreams, hopes, and fears. No Disney princesses, singing teapots or emasculated wolves.

This program won best in fringe and five stars at multiple festivals. It is appropriate for adults only.

This program will be live on zoom, and the recording will be available for two weeks after the performance.

The stories we tell matter. Whether we are telling to kids, crafting a presentation for work, preparing for a concert, or something else entirely, what we say and how we say it is important. 

Listening matters. When we listen to each other we find understanding and compassion we might otherwise have missed.

She understands the transformational power of storytelling and listening, and how they help us understand ourselves, each other, and the world.

In addition to her award-winning performance and writing work, Laura is an experienced coach and educator, helping people understand themselves, their stories, and their worlds.. Her coaching and teaching work ranges from storytelling to writing to creativity to social change and more, and has been described as "transformational."

As the sole proprietor of thinkstory.com, Laura helps for- and non-profits identify, craft and hone their stories. Whether for marketing, recruitment, fund raising, leadership, or something else, every organization has stories that need to be told.
