\n Eth-Noh-Tec is on a mission to bridge eastern and western
world cultures together by sharing both modern and traditional folktales
from Asia. With the gestures of their body and the expressions of their fa
ce\, master storytellers Robert Kikuchi Yngojo and Nancy Wang captivate au
diences of all ages with story\, dance\, and music. Their engaging style o
f performance transports the audience across the world to locations like t
he shores of Japan\, the rice fields of Vietnam\, and the villages of Tibe
t. Recently the pair has been working in China and India with other Americ
an storytellers through their `Nu Wa Rising` story exchange program. As ho
sting communities share their local Folktale with them\, they share tales
from America and Europe.
