What people have been saying

about Li Min's workshops & shows!

"We recently attended Li Min Mo's extraordinary performance of "Night River - The Healing Power of Memory" at Club Passim in Harvard Square. Li Min's true-life storytelling affected us powerfully. As she shared her autobiographical story, we glimpsed the angst, despair, and fear that took hold of her childhood in old world China, upon the institution of the Cultural Revolution, and that refused to let go of her new life in America.... Li Min Mo is a gifted storyteller whose tales of imaginary, mythical worlds are animated with exotic dragons, Zen warriors and magical fish. But in the Night River performance we heard Li Min begin to tell the powerful and illuminating tale of her own life."

-David and Lucinda Leveille, February of 1998

"I cannot begin to tell you what a great impact you had on my young people. You are frequently alluded to or quoted lately... You have opened up new routes to "the East" in ways unimagined by me... And there is more to come. Li Min Mo has touched our lives, opened new avenues of learning, and taught us more than she can even realize"

-Bettie Hullen of Springfield Highschool of Science and Technology, April of 1999

"She made it possible for our students to have a multidisciplinary experience with one teacher, and that SUPERB teacher is Li Min Mo."

-Lauren Knight of Rice School (Holden, Massachusetts), March of 1998

"Dear Li Min, What a delight to have you here at Brimmer & May, you truly transported all of us to the Silk Road, ancient and now...
...and even the smells and taste you gave us!

-Jenny Segal, music teacher at Brimmer & May (Massachusetts), 2002

"Li Min draws a magic circle-a mandala-with her stories, so that rare occurrence of being one with the story-teller, entering her land, seeing her visions, hearing her voices, happens."

-Charlotte Reinemann of Dover Sherborn Junior High School

"Li Min Mo's piece was emotionally and aesthetically powerful. It was an artful combination of narrative and theater, a vivid encounter with the genuine drama of a lifestory with depth and power."

-H Sussman, December 1997

"It's a wonderful experience for kids we can't provide. she tells stories for a living and when someone has that talent, it's wonderful to see"

-John Moore, January of 1986
