Internationally known storyteller Fran Stallings tells myths, legends, and night stories from all over the world accompanied by stunning, planetarium projected constellations.

Love, betrayal, monsters, vengeance! Long before 3D and Netflix, our ancestors told hair-raising tales of the heroes whom they immortalized in the constellations that wheel over our heads at night. Come hear the stories and learn to spot those star patterns when the Sun sets.

What’s in it for you? . . .  

  •  You will hear stories about the stars which have been told since ancient times.
  •  You will have a planetarium experience at the library.
  •  You will have heard a world-renowned storytelling professional.

Fran Stallings is an American storyteller for people of all ages. She has performed at national and international storytelling festivals, in schools and libraries, and on the radio.
