Happy Halloween from Big Ryan’s Tall Tales! Keep it fun and spooky!

Let everyone you know that Big Ryan is offering virtual shows via FB Live and Zoom! Anyone looking for a fantastic break from the heat can tune in to Big Ryan’s FaceBook page here on Tuesdays afternoons at 4:00pm for a quick and hilarious story from Big Ryan!

Also, Big Ryan is offering virtual, and “socially distanced” shows to anyone who is looking for entertaining storytimes for their programs.

During this pandemic I am trying to stay busy as with virtual storytellings.  Either by FaceBook or by Zoom I have been making sure to add content to entetasin everyone who is staying home. I have been excited to hear from all the friends and fans so please comment and send messages as much as you want! I will keep you up to date about what’s happening this summer although it’s pretty shaky right now with some schools hiring and others cancelling already booked shows. Either way I am here to keep your little ones laughing!

Yes, I am traveling to Dover, MA tomorrow for a show at 11:00am – make sure to come out and enjoy the tales!  Come get out of the cold – warm your bodies with some fun giggles!

Make sure to take note that I will be telling stories at the Plymouth Public Library next Friday!  Come and join us for a fantastic morning full of giggles!

My workshop season begins soon! These fun and interactive workshops meet weekly and explore new and exciting ways to enhance children’s literature through voices, puppets, dialogic reading and using different mediums like flannel and paper!
