PRESS RELEASE     (Sample) SILVER TROUT FAMILY CONCERT

(PRESENTER)         will present a special Family Night Concert at         (VENUE)         featuring Storytelling, Poetry, Puppetry, and Music with Susana and Timmy Abell of Silver Trout Arts. The evening begins at 5:30 with a pizza supper followed by the concert at 6:30. Tickets are $3.50.      With 25 years of touring experience, Timmy Abell is one of the SoutheastŐs most popular family entertainers. His recordings have won the highest national awards including ParentŐs Choice Gold, and he was awarded the prestigious NC Arts Council Fellowship for Songwriting. Timmy has performed at The Kennedy Center, The National Theater and in countless schools and concert halls across the country.      Susana Abell is a bilingual puppeteer, a delightful performer who also holds a graduate teaching degree. She has worked in South America, Europe and the New York metro area with sponsorship including Carnegie Hall and The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation.      This very special event is part of a week-long school and community residency funded in part by the North Carolina Arts Council. Susana and Timmy began collaborating under the name of Silver Trout Arts just over a year ago and have already given over 100 concerts across the Southeast.      "As teaching artists, our work together focuses on sharing with our students the idea that there are many different ways to share a story, in effect, to share their own inner creativity in a way that suits them best." says Susana. "Our family night concerts provide a wonderful opportunity for families and friends to come together, share some great music and stories, even a European style puppet show - and remember that you don't always have to plug something in to have a good time!"
