Meet the Performers
Sean McCollough
Sean is a multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter. He is also a national Parents' Choice award winner, the host of Kidstuff radio on WDVX, a member of the Americana group The Lonetones. A teacher, a record producer, and a sound engineer, he has been entertaining and educating families and school groups with his energetic and engaging performances since the mid 90s.

Charlene Ellis
Baby guru Charlene Ellis blends songs, rhymes, fingerplays, books, and more to create fun-filled and educational programs for babies and their caregivers. Charlene will have you giggling, singing, and bouncing with your baby as you share the joy of together time in the library.

Laurie Fisher
Be careful, Miss Laurie will draw you right into her story, and you might get lost in the pages!



Miss Lynn loves to share a good story through her songs, and to hear kids’ stories in return when they talk and sing together. The songs on her CD, Something New, include stories of a homemade "garbage" band (Make Something New), a sandy return from beach vacation (Itty Bitty Nitty Gritty), the perils of cooking without proper time and care (The Tale of the Hasty Baker), and the international journey to build one family (Once Upon a Time). Something New and her first CD, Outside the Lines (2008), have been featured on the radio in Boston, St. Louis, and central Ohio.

Emagene Reagan is a retired school librarian who tells stories from folk and fairy tales and nursery rhymes, to popular storybooks and original stories you might like to tell to others.

One World Circus
Drawing on cross cultural traditions of community carnivals and celebrations, One World Circus engages audiences in everything from giggles to a potential walk across the tight rope.

Georgi Schmitt
A storyteller who has traveled the globe over, Georgi brings together songs, stories and movement for audiences of all ages.
