Kathy delighted us with her stories and songs… (She) has a lovely style which makes her stories a real pleasure to listen to.

We recently hosted Kathy in a show to support one of our youth group fundraisers. We had such a wonderful time and enjoyed her stories immensely! Kathy has a great way of reading the crowd on the spot and adapting her show to suit the interests of the audience. She has a talent for reaching all ages and capturing the child in us all through her tales. From folk lore to children’s stories Kathy presented an excellent afternoon of entertainment.

Kathy Jessup’s storytelling concert was a great way for our non- profit society to raise funds. We hosted this family event in a theatre setting, and Kathy’s variety of humorous and dramatic stories delighted all age groups.
