Marvin Cole

Storyteller

Tall Tales and Short Anecdotes

 

Marvin tells stories of past and present from Appalachian sources, mountain tales, stories originating in the Western United States, riverboat tales, and experiences derived from this five years of living in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Most of his repertoire is taken from the works of Mark Twain. In fact, six hours of Twain is available from his over twenty years of study and research, but you do not have to listen to all of it at one time.

Discussions following performances are welcome unless it is in theater setting. Questions are welcome.

Cole is a member of the Asheville Storytelling Circle, the National Storytelling Network, and the Southern Order of Storytellers in Atlanta. His goals in storytelling are to help people laugh and enjoy life, and particularly to look at how we can understand and appreciate other people.
