​Step into a world where legendary heroes are brought to life through playful competition, physical comedy, and fast-paced storytelling! In #TallTales, two classmates—logical Emma and imaginative Zoe—bring American folklore to life with larger-than-life flair. From the outlandish feats of Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill to the whirlwind exploits of Sally Ann Thunder Ann Whirlwind, their tall tale retellings spark laughs, debates, and a high-energy storytelling showdown.

​

But as Emma and Zoe wrestle with tornadoes and the truth, they discover that stories aren’t always what they seem—and that even the tallest tale can carry a deeper truth. With quick wit and heart, #TallTales playfully blurs the line between fact and fiction, inviting young audiences to explore creativity, critical thinking, and media literacy in a world filled with stories.

​

#Tall Tales is an exciting, modern twist on classic Tall Tales designed to captivate K–5 audiences and inspire rich post performance discussions. Join us for an unforgettable performance where every challenge grows taller with every retelling!
