One-Man Extravaganza of Masks and Stories Come to Raymond Walters College

Michael Cooper's larger-than-life, handcrafted masks along with his original stories of courage and wonder, and outlandish stilt-dancing are sure to please children of all ages. "Masked Marvels and Wondertales" has been seen around the world at the Hong Kong International Children's Festival, The Dublin Theater Festival and locations across the United States.

Taking up to three hundred hours to produce a single paper, cloth or wooden mask, Cooper has elevated this ancient theater craft to the level of fine art, mixed with his own poetic whimsy.
