Yvonne Healy is a born storyteller…
when she talks the wind forgets to blow and kids forget to watch TV!

“Yvonne’s an Irish pixie of a performer!” - L’Anse Creuse Senior Citizens, MI

With one foot planted in the old country and the other rooted here, Yvonne tantalizes audiences with multicultural tales told in an American accent with an Irish lilt.

“You’re in for a rare treat!” - William Darling, Chair, Gualala Art Center, CA

Tucked into bed with tales her parents recorded for the Irish Folklore Commission, Yvonne also shares these rare finds along with ancient Celtic sagas and her family’s first hand histories of the Emerald Isle.

Innovative artist-educator…
“Very creative and innovative. Techniques were memorable. And practical.” - Ann Scroggie, workshop participant, NSN Conference, OK

Yvonne adapts techniques from life as a professional actress, comic improviser and yoga teacher to inspire students at elementary, teen, college, adult and professional levels.
