Sam joins Talleri McRae, a teaching artist with Arts for All to discuss how her experience in making theatre and storytelling more accessible has impacted the trajectory of lives. According to Talleri, "I am a teaching artist who curates theatre arts experiences for students of all ages. I often use a story as a jumping off point for a highly participatory lesson for younger students, and enjoy offering story as metaphor when I facilitate more specific skill-based lessons for older students. My hallmark style involves placing the student experience at the center of each lesson, and crafting accessible, personalized questions that explore not only the art of theatre, but the depth and breath of the human experience."
