The World Storytelling Institute will hold a 3-day Chennai Storytelling Festival from Feb. 1st. The participants will attend sessions on �Storytelling and Education�, �Storytelling and Child Development� and �Storytelling and Tourism�. They will also learn the art of different styles of storytelling from villages and hamlets nearby.
According to Mr. Eric Miller, Director of World Storytelling Institute, �While �Modern Storytelling� is geared towards education, the �Traditional Storytelling� segment tends to veer towards religion.
When we tell ancient stories we modify them so that people of all backgrounds can enjoy them.�
