Charismatic Jim Weiss makes classical literature irresistible. With more than 45 storytelling recordings and 85 national awards from countless educational and parenting organizations, Weiss is a master storyteller. His stories encourage families and children to share an appreciation and understanding of his characters and what we all can learn from each other.

In this program, classics of many lands -- wisdom from China and Japan, an African romance, and wildly funny Native American, Arabian, and Spanish tales -- show that human beings are all related. The program is geared for elementary and middle school students and their families.

Limited seating is first-come, first-served with doors opening at 6:15 pm. CDs will be available after the performance.

Co-sponsors include Target and 17 Days/ArtsGreensboro, with support from Greensboro Public Library and Triad Storytelling Exchange.
