We Tell
Stories Trunk Shows
With our iconic, antique steamer
trunk on center stage, three We Tell Stories actors weave a world of
extraordinary stories using everyday items as costumes and props.
Audience members participate from their seats, then join the actors
to play an integral part in every performance. WTS performances
offer family entertainment that is both entertaining and culturally
enriching.
We Tell Stories trunk shows are 45
minutes in length, and are generally comprised of three distinct stories. In
addition to school assemblies, WTS also performs its signature trunk
shows at festivals, family days, libraries, museums and parks. The
