Paul Taylor celebrates his Australian homeland, sharing stories and music of Aboriginal and European Australia in one-man theater productions. Take a trip down under with Paul in “Matilda and the Dreamtime,” a family and educational performance, or “Land of the Lightning Brothers”, a multi-media performance of Aboriginal stories and music, including the exotic sounds of the didjeridoo. Yidunduma Bill Harney, the last male custodian of the Wardaman culture in Australia’s Northern Territory, mentors Taylor. Taylor returns to Australia on sabbatical each year to study with Mr. Harney and presents the stories and images from this performance with permission of the Wardaman Elder.
As a performing artist, Paul trained as an actor at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, UK. He worked professionally as an actor, stage manager in Australia’s regional theatres, and a clown in a circus show performing throughout England, Scotland and Wales. The state Arts Councils of Texas, Wyoming, Utah, North Dakota, South Carolina, and South Dakota endorse Taylor’s work. His performance credits include the New Orleans Jazz Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival, Clearwater Revival Folk Festival, National Geographic, Festivale Internationale de Louisiane, National Storytelling Festival and Wyoming Symphony Orchestra.
Now based in Laramie, Wyoming, Paul Taylor has performed and taught for over 300,000 American children. He has been honored for his work with Arts in Education by being appointed Adjunct Professor in the University of Wyoming, College of Education. Paul’s family CD, “Cooee,” won six national awards including Parent’s Choice Gold and the Storytelling World Award.
