O'Connor Miller is a multimedia storyteller with a style and presentation all
her own. Equally effective performing with puppets or masks, she moves through
her stories with elegant minimalism sometimes using mime and music. Engaging
and delightfully imaginative in her use of ethnic accents, dialects and character
voices, Marilyn weaves carefully chosen folk and fairy tales from many lands to
delight children and to awaken the child within. Marilyn offers storytelling
with "Dual-Focus" performing for children and adults tailored to your
time and budget.

"Marilyn
O'Connor Miller uses many unique and creative enhancements in performance
from masks to puppets. What makes her performances exceptional is that these enhancements
never overwhelm her story or the art of her telling. This gives listeners a unique
experience that renders her performances accessible and enchanting to a wide range
of ages. It also makes her programs particularly effective with both audiences
who have not experienced storytelling before and those who are seasoned listeners.
Her stories are told with quiet, compelling authority and include moral tales
that are pleasingly free of didacticism. Sit as I did and watch the faces of her
listeners. You will see the invisible threads that she casts between herself and
the hearts and minds of her audience. You will see the unforgettable sight of
eyes lit with laughter and delight."...Kate McClelland,
