A couple of years ago, I was hired to do a storytelling set for a local geriatric center. I got there and started talking. About half way through the first story, one of the residents started talking about how she and her husband had gone out in their boat. This led others to begin. I never did finish that story. One of the staff came up to me later and said that they had learned more about the residents than they had ever known. One of the most interactive speakers had been almost mute since arriving there. Sometimes conversation is the best performance.
