Eth-Noh-Tec Brings Kinetic Story Theater To Mariposa

The house lights dim, drums and a bamboo flute are heard in the distance.  Looking around the audience spots the dramatic duo of Eth-Noh-Tec’s, Robert Kikuchi-Yngojo and Nancy Wang making their way to the stage.  Its story theatre time as Eth-Noh-Tec quickly engages listeners with Asian folktales and myths with their enchanting use of storytelling, theatre, dance and music.  The Mariposa County Arts Council’s, 25^th Mariposa Storytelling Festival, will be featuring Eth-Noh-Tec, along with five other renowned storytellers, during its three-day event, March 9 – 11, 2012.

Often embellishing plots with the lyricism of a flute, or bringing characters to life with animated facial gestures, Robert and Nancy’s masterful timing and surprises draw audiences of all ages into a joyful exploration of Asian culture.  Eth-Noh-Tec has performed at schools, festivals, universities and conferences around the world, including the Smithsonian, the Kennedy Center, and the National Storytelling Festival.  This will be Eth-Noh-Tec’s third appearance in Mariposa.
