WHAT CLOWNS AND VARIETY ARTISTS ARE SAYING ABOUT HARLYNNE GEISLER:

She is known for her ability to captivate an audience with nothing more than gesture, changing facial expression, pauses, and the words she wisely chooses to bring story images to life within listeners. Festival stages, conferences, colleges, schools, coffeehouses, churches, temples, community centers, museums and more have all provided venues for her telling gifts. Laugh Makers Magazine

The Golden Clowns of Hemet wish to express our appreciation for the great workshop you presented to our Alley. There were 33 members present, and all agreed that the presentation was very worthwhile, not only for those who wish to do storytelling but also those interested in presenting skits. We hope we can have you on our agenda again next year. B. M., President

COMMENTS FROM LAUGH-MAKERS VARIETY ARTS CONFERENCE, NEW YORK:

Bob and I want to thank you for the excellent job you did as part of our Laugh-Makers Conference instructional staff this year. We received many appreciate comments from students grateful especially for your 'Participation & Improvisation Stories' class. Cathy Gibbons, Conference Director

Once upon a time in a wonderful land called Aurora, a clown of middle years learned of a great gift which he could give all the people he met--a story! You were great, and I hope you come back! Clyde, the Big Time Clown, Pennsylvania

Your organization and presentation of material were very clear and easy to follow. You were well prepared, and your enthusiastic style enabled all of us to catch that fire. Your workshops were some of the most productive and informative ones I have ever attended. Jeanne Donato of Joy-O-Loons Balloon Artists, Rhode Island

I was really taken by your professionalism. Your stage presence was powerful, and your stories were wonderful!!! Mark Wade, Ventriloquist, Ohio
