Donna has been called a “Walking Disney Movie”, and told she was "better than television".

Donna reaches people of all ages with her charismatic, animated performances.

Donna will also host a workshop from 1pm at The Scruffy Bunny Improv Theatre; Face, Voice, Gesture – How to use your storytelling Toolkit to its utmost! She says “Storytelling is more than just saying words. Incorporating sound effects, character voices, faces and bodies, and using gesture can enhance any story from The Three Little Pigs to that tale you tell about your Aunt Sally’s favorite Hat!” This workshop will suit anyone who does performance, public speaking, teaching, telling – being at the front of the room engaging an audience.
