Storyteller Janet Harllee to perform at Asheboro library

ASHEBORO – Asheboro-based storyteller and author Janet Harllee will bring her Southern hairdresser character Mitsy Lou Puppernickel back to the Asheboro library at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, September 22.

Harllee’s performance, based on her book Just a Closer Stumble with Thee, is called “Stories from Home in the South,” and is suitable for older children and adults. It’s free and the public is invited.

Her appearance is a lead-in to The Heart of North Carolina Storytelling Festival, September 25-26 at the Greensboro Public Library and the Greensboro Historical Museum, and is part of an effort to bring storytellers to all 100 counties before the festival begins.

Harllee is currently director of admissions and marketing for the Assisted Livings at Cross Roads Retirement Community. She is a member and past-president of the North Carolina Storytelling Guild, and also has a background in theatre and public speaking.

The library is located at 201 Worth Street. For further information, call 318-6803.
