Motoko

Motoko Award-winning Japanese storyteller Motoko captivates children of all ages withancient tales, original stories, lyrical movement and traditional songs. A student of late master mime Tony Montanaro, Motoko is nationally known for her appearance on “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood,” and has been featured on the Exchange Place Stage at the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, Tennessee.

“Endearing…Motoko effortlessly captures and keeps a whole crowd’s attention, blending her quiet speaking voice with blunt American colloquialisms for emphasis and humor.” - New Haven Advocate
