RE: John Lithgow to Perform and Keynote at Learning 2011

We are honored to announce that Tony, Emmy and Golden Globe Award Winner, John Lithgow will perform “Stories by Heart” and be interviewed by Elliott Masie on “The Power of Storytelling” at the Learning 2011 Conference on November 8, 2011 in Orlando, Florida.

“We are very excited that John Lithgow will be featured at Learning 2011 – focusing on stories and storytelling, a key element in the field of learning. I have seen John Lithgow perform in TV, Film and Broadway, [ranging] from 3rd Rock from the Sun, to Dexter, to Footloose, to Shrek and even Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. He is also an author and musician.

John Lithgow will be performing an incredible 1 person, 1 act play, where he plays all the characters at our Learning 2011 evening celebration on Tuesday night.  That afternoon, I will interview him in an “actor’s workshop” format, exploring what makes stories and storytelling powerful and effective. We are looking forward to laughing and learning with John Lithgow at Learning 2011,” said Elliott Masie.
