"My stories revolve around philosophy, fun, faith, food and frolicking. I left the corporate world to do this!
    "Modern life needs more avenues to higher reality and true significance.
    "Stories can take us to places familiar and unfamiliar, or to those deep places unknown within ourselves."

Karen-Eve Bayne

Also available as
Storyteller for Schools, Libraries and Family Events
Workshop Leader + Management Trainer

Guest Speaker, Lecturer + Performance Artist
Inspiring, spicy, powerful, sassy... Karen-Eve's style of performance is unique. She is inspired by her own rich storytelling heritage and by nearly 15 years living in Europe.

From the dark forests of old England to bittersweet days in the South, Karen-Eve's repertoire strikes sparks off at least two cultures. Her warm and engaging presence enchants audiences.

She specialises in Stories of Faith. Her performances move listeners to laughter and deep emotion. Her repertoire ranges from Mountain folklore, Native American stories and legends of the ancient world to modern urban myths. She offers thought provoking tales of triumph, failure, hope and the human condition challenged to thrive in today's high tech world.

Karen-Eve has lectured for professional organisations ranging from Trinity College, UK to the Kellogg Center, and as guest speaker has entertained audiences from Rotarian and women's groups to the West Palm Beach Wine Club.

Dress style: Formal or cocktail. Costume if required.

"Wonderful tales of war, loss and romance"
"An evening of sheer delight"
"Hypnotic. I was completely mesmerised. You should be in Hollywood!"

Based near Hendersonville, NC.



Storyteller for Schools and Libraries, Museums, Parks and Family Events

Performances, workshops and programs designed for school curriculum and heritage site events.

Karen-Eve has a clear, lively delivery and a great store of funny, wise stories to engage young audiences. Backed by qualifications - including as a Substitute Teacher - and serious experience across all age groups. Great rapport with young audiences!

Her love of stories was first fired up in school when she heard the Greek Myths. Now, having learned European legends and folktales in their places of origin, she is passing on this wonderful heritage to schoolchildren and older students across North Carolina.

“The children were enthralled. Very talented storyteller..."
