ERICA LANN-CLARK

"A dynamo with stage presence to spare, Lann-Clark had the audience in convulsions. One woman in front of me laughed so hard she fell out of her chair."
- Andrea Perkins, Metro Santa Cruz

"Erica Lann Clark's performance is a fantastic blend of story and theater. She'll make you laugh. She'll make you think. She'll make you laugh about thinking."
-Martin Sheen, actor

"You must hear Erica tell. Her energy pulls us inside her telling and we cannot leave until her stories have finished their work with us."
-Donald Davis, storyteller

"She brought the house down, Oy vey!"
-R. Lynde, Register Pajaronian

"You don't have to be Jewish to love these stories."
-her mother

From the shtetl to the 'hood, one woman tells traditional and personal tales with rambunctious humor and an ear for authentic voices.

Librarians say:
"At our branch, it is hard to attract boys to a storytelling program, much less keep them there. What I noticed was the number of boys in the audience who were giggling their heads off during the entire performance. You have a true gift of rapport with an audience and your modernized stories kept them enraptured."
-S. Jones, Pleasanton P.L., CA

Teachers say:
"My students, even the ones who lose attention the easiest, were glued to you. You are a totally unique and vibrant person. Your sense of humor is delightful and the stories'themes are so valuable today."
-J. Hickok, Hyde School, Watsonville

"Scandalously funny woman!"
-S. Ford, Artistic Director, Strawberry Storytelling Festival

"You made my imagination go bonkers!"
-Nicole, 4th Grade
