Misty Mator has been performing for young children for nearly a decade as her alter-ego “Starla the Storyteller.” She has offered residencies and performances both as herself and as “Starla” for schools, libraries, and festivals where viewers have commented: “The children are so excited to hear her storytelling, and talk about it for days,” “The children get so engaged!” and “every gesture, every expression, all made [the] story come alive!” She has performed for Pittsburgh’s Alphabet Trails & Tales, the Beaver Tales Storytelling Festival, Better Said Than Done, Six Feet Apart Productions, and other venues. Misty draws on her study of traditional myths and her experience as a mother-of-four to entertain, educate, and amuse audiences of all ages. Her stories enrich lives with connection, laughter, and wisdom.
