Storytelling and Poetry with Ed Edmo
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Ed Edmo is a Shoshone-Bannock poet, playwright, performer and traditional storyteller on Northwest tribal culture. He will be at the park from 11 a.m. to noon every Friday, providing storytelling and poetry for kids and adults alike.
Oregon Public Broadcast has described his stories as '…breathing life into characters like Nasho, a monster woman, and cultural tricksters like the Coyote and Spider Woman. He changes his voice, making it high for the women’s parts and low for the men’s. Sometimes, he incorporates puppets or asks the audience to help him, urging them to repeat after him.'
