The imagination and memories of our elders can easily be lost in the quickly-shifting post-Katrina landscape. Starting this August, theatermaker Joanna Russo will begin a storytelling workshop at the elderly living facility at 2110 Royal St. The residency closes with a celebration for the storytellers, providing residents with the opportunity to share their stories with the broader community.
