The Story Stone
 
 

The Story Stone calls to all of us, but who will stop to listen? Two boys from warring tribes heed the call and find that they must work together to access the magic of the stone. Their journey leads them to the very heart of story where they find the key to healing the conflict between their people.

 

Will you come, and stop, and listen?

 

"The play is lovely!!!! A wonderful way for young people to enter the subject of conflict and the healing power of stories. I love the way you infused the various stories throughout. "
