Lynn Torrie:

Lynn Torrie tells true stories from history, so vividly that you can imagine that you were there! Take your Gravol before this one; you might get seasick.
•    In 1896, an enormous tidal wave swept the coast of Japan. Entire villages were washed away. Thirty thousand people died. In one village, however, not a single life was lost, because of the actions of one man.
•    In 1882 Ontario, Christie Ann Morrison got onto a steamship, to visit her sister in Michigan. Little did she know that she was about to experience one of Lake Huron’s worst storms, in a ship that was never meant for deep water. 

She is a Toronto storyteller with a passion for traditional folk tales and Canadian history.  Her original adaptations have been told at festivals, schools, museums and online. When not telling stories herself, she teaches workshops in storytelling and coaches emerging tellers.  She is a member of the York storytelling Guild and a regular host at Storytelling Toronto’s Storytent, 1001 Friday Nights of Storytelling and StorySwap Canada.
