Inaugural Week

Graziano and Nancy Seitz Marcheschi

Scripture Alive: Telling the Story with Drama, Dance, and Mime

Scripture comes alive when proclaimed with imagination. Religious educators can bring energy, joy and life-giving fun to their work with scripture and liturgical celebration. This session will focus on how drama, movement and storytelling can be used at any educational level (in worship or the classroom) to proclaim and study scripture.

Presenters: Graziano Marcheschi and Nancy Seitz Marcheschi are directors of the ANAWIM PLAYERS, a Liturgical Performing Arts Company. Nancy is liturgist and performing arts teacher at Pope John XXIII School in Evanston. Graziano is Director of Lay Ecclesial Ministry Formation for the Archdiocese of Chicago. Together they serve on the faculty of the Institute of Pastoral Studies, Loyola University. They have many print, audio and videotape publications and are parents of two daughters and a son.
