Renowned storyteller Kirk Waller shares African and African American folktales, legends and history, bringing them alive with music, movement, singing and the spoken word. 

With a lifelong love of story, literature and the visual arts, Kirk Waller has been immersed in these art forms for over 20 years. He summons all of his God-given talents and masterfully fuses them together, using spoken word, rhythm, music and movement to create an unforgettable storytelling experience. Kirk has told at festivals, schools, libraries, churches and special events in the San Francisco Bay Area and across our nation.
