This next one is a 45 minute lecture on Storytelling Theory and Practice. I really got a lot out of it, the Professor has similar thoughts to myself. He tells 3 great stories throughout.

Some excellent material here! The only thing I would add is that stories must be told OUT LOUD! Al magciains chould practice reading or telling stories out loud as a way of developing both character and presentation skills.

Very nice resources. I'm thinking about doing a draw and tell story using an interactive Smartboard.

I love storytelling magic. However, it's like some mentalism. The stories must not be so long that the magic effect is lost. I have a sack of river stones with animals and characters carved on them.I found a mystical looking bag and put them in it. Then, I collected stories to fit the stones I have. Not all are magical, but I'm working on it.

Thanks so much for all the resources. The first time I show a magic show presented in storytelling form, I loved it and now I've got some resources to start learning how to incorporate it.

This is an amazing resource. Someone has kindly collected a load of storytelling videos off the WWW and put them in the Storylab. Note there are 20 pages so take your time and infuse
