 Elm Farm Ollie's Vision |
The slam is a way for unknown storytellers to get
exposure, but more importantly it is a learning
experience for storytellers and audience alike--
many of which are newbies. This is the beauty of
the "Ollie, Ollie Oxen Free" Story Slam! We hope
all storytellers everywhere will come forward and
tell us their tale! We all learn from each other!
Of course, it takes an openess and a sense of
adventure for a seasoned teller to put themselves
out there with beginners--but everyone benefits--
even the pro! We want above all else for Elm Farm
Ollie to be free--free to be FUN! Elm Farm Ollie
is not an "American Idol"--she is a "folk
hero"! The competition aspect of the slam serves
only to push everyone to do their best. See you
at the slam--
Happy Valentines Day,
Elm Farm Ollie
