WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

 By the River offers storytelling platforms to interested groups of people of Bangalore. I happened to participate in one of their evening sessions in Goodearth community. One has to see to believe and appreciate the way the storytellers engaged the audience with their simple episodes . The flow of moving from one's style to another and theatrical sensitivity they hold and embed into the stories they narrate has a magical effect for the audience. Adults in the audience forgot their age when they levelled as children; curious and wondering 'what next'. I wish ' By the River ' great strides in whatever they bring to Bangaloreans!.”
