SAY SOMETHIN' NEW

6pm Dann Seki brings us another literary piece showcasing his theatrical muscles with the Roman writer Ovid's Classic, Metamorphoses, recanting several Greek and Roman myths. If you heard them in High School you surely didn't hear them like this!
Sean Buvala*, from Arizona, shares the Irish tales of The Fiery Steed  and The Demon Cat, which  he promises are funny pieces. Sean is a whirling dervish of story activities, including internet coaching and storytelling business advice.
See Elauri is a free-style poet and host at the hip nightspot  Ong King. Jason Tom is Honolulu's human beat-box. They promise a story rendering so fresh that THEY don't even know what they'll be saying (and definitely something NEW!)
7pm 'Tita' Kathy Collins can't decide: a Tita-ized local funny story, a traditional Japanese folktale, or Philippine legend. She'll follows her other sold-out shows at the Maui Arts & Culture Center Nov. 16-18, and tells Sundays with the Barefoot Natives in Lahaina.
Sandra MacLees joins us from an active life in Volcano annually. This year she comes with two tales of war and peace: The Trial (her experiences school as a teacher) and The Monkey King, a Buddist Jataka (teaching) tale.
Brenda Freitas-Obregon  is a well-kept storytelling secret, only performing for her regular group of children in the Kalihi-Palama Library. Luckily, she comes to tell the poignant adult tale from Kauai, Ka-Lau-He'e.
8pm Daniel A. Kelin, II  is the nationally celebrated Education Director for the Honolulu Theater for Youth. He'ss share two of his life exploits: In the Kingdom of Foolishness (from a trip to India) and The Horse That Didn't Look So Good (visiting Vermont).
Makia Malo  survived thirty years of isolation in Kalaupapa, Hawaii's settlement for people with Hanson's disease (leprosy) before emerging to become a pro storyteller. Told tonight's theme, he said 'Sounds like homework. My mind's already working on it.'
