4 years ago By News Staff

They say that every story has a beginning, and for 23 young people from Pecos County, it all started on Sept. 18 at the Fort Stockton Community Theatre’s Storytelling Workshop.

Master Storyteller Sue Roseberry from Midland was on hand for the day-long workshop to teach the art of storytelling and help the participants feel comfortable in front of an audience. Ms. Roseberry was helped by FSCT coaches Ruben Gonzales, Ann Hurt, Jordan Rychlik, and Molly Yeager.
