 |
Bil Lepp
is
a five-time champion of the West Virginia Liars Contest. He tells
original, hilarious, tales that will bring a smile to the face of
even the most ill humored person. Bil Lepp is a nationally known
storyteller with a down home feel. |
 |
Kim Weitkamp
is best known for her original Pitscreek stories, Ms. Weitkamp will
charm the audience with her warm storytelling style that volleys
back and forth between stand-up comedy and heart felt story weaving.
Weitkamp is best known for her skills in laying down a whopper of
tale, combining humor, original childhood stories and just a
touch of fertilizer to create stories that can compete with the
best of them. |
 |
Michael Reno Harrell
is an award winning songwriter, as well as a veteran storyteller and
entertainer, and he’s from the South…the Southern Appalachian
Mountains to hone it a bit finer. One could compare Michael’s
performances to his granddaddy’s pocket knife, well warn and
familiar feeling, but razor sharp and with a point. He gets the job
done.
|
Again, there
will be TWO Uniqure Performances on Friday and Saturday evenings
beginning at 6:30 pm at the Mollahan Building within the
wall of the former West Virginia Penitentiary in Moundsville,
West Virginia
