Storytelling
About Nicky
Nicky Bingham, a classicaly trained British Actress (Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama 1990 – 1993 BA Honours) has worked in Theatre/Film/TV/Radio and Musical Theatre for 18 years.
In 2005, after touring children’s theatre shows in schools around South America, Nicky began her career in ‘Performance Storytelling’. She set up her own Theatre Company offering Storytelling and Drama Workshops for children and teachers. Over the last three years Nicky has been performing in International and bilingual schools in South America, Asia, The Middle east and the UK. She is also a teacher and workshop leader ( Art Excel/Part 1 Course /Sri Sri Yoga) with one of the worlds largest volunteer based Non Governmental Organizations, The Art Of Living (www.artofliving.org).
Nicky is a unique ’storyteller’ and ‘character actress’. She literally brings a story to life and her performances could alternatively be described as ‘one woman shows’. They are simply ‘magical’ and captivate all who witness her boundless energy and hilarious characters. She is animated, creative, highly imaginative and adaptable . Nicky interacts at all times with her audience allowing them to truly feel ‘involved’ in the story, maximising their enjoyment and learning.
In Performance Storytelling, Nicky combines the traditional form of storytelling (oral narration) with her natural acting ability to portray many characters. This leads to the birth of a totally unique and fascinating experience in performance art in which a story is created overflowing with energy and wonder! She uses gesture, mime, voice and movement to evoke strong images (no costume or props are used). Her performances invite the audience to use their imagination and paint their own visual image in their minds.
