Event Description
Storytellers Denise Page and Jennifer Munro will perform at Guilford Art Center on Thursday, September 26, as part of the GreenStage@GAC series of live events that bring together the performing and visual arts.
Under the name Black & Silver Productions, Denise and Jen received a 2022 GreenStage Artists’ Award; they curated and presented a collection of five women’s stories at the 2023 GreenStage festival last September. At this event, they’ll be telling their own stories, playing off works in the Guilford Art League’s 76th annual juried exhibition.
Munro, storyteller, author, educator and humorist, grew up in the English Midlands and fell in love with the spoken word at an early age. She’s performed at festivals throughout the United States and internationally; published a collection of short stories; and received a Circle of Excellence Award from the National Storytelling Network. She teaches workshops on the art and practice of storytelling, and she and Page co-produce a series of shows in Connecticut called Women Tell: Our Stories Through the Decades.
Page, a Connecticut native, is a social justice advocate who’s newer to storytelling but no less talented for it. She’s performed at the National Storytelling Network’s annual conference, Women’s Storytelling Festival and International Festival of Arts and Ideas. She founded Ubuntu Storytellers, which illuminates social justice issues via storytelling, workshops and action. She’s on the board of Northeast Storytelling, is vice president of the Connecticut Storytelling Center and president-elect of the National Speakers Association’s Connecticut chapter.
