"Where ever
Sacre goes, he leaves storytellers behind."
—Chicago Tribune
Sacre's 45 minute storytelling assemblies draw
from an extensive repertoire that includes folk talkes, myths and
legends from around the world, focusing on Spanish-speaking countries,
especially Mexico. He can perform entirely in English, Spanish or a
lively interweaving of both. His teaching workshops give educators
specific tools that they can use to bring storytelling across their
curriculum from Pre-K through post graduate level. Sacre is a favorite
featured storyteller at over 50 festivals worldwide, including the
National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, Tennessee and the
Kennedy Center.
