Stacy Barton
SHOW WRITER/EXPERIENCE DESIGNER
As a Storyteller, I love a good story—hearing it, seeing it, shaping it, sharing it—how it comes to life with an audience. I've been called the 'Swiss army knife' of storytellers; if you can only have one writer, I'm the one you want. I thrive in all forms of collaboration and for the past twenty years I’ve specialized in narrative development, show writing, and immersive design for themed experiences, including major projects for Disney, SeaWorld, Ringling Bros. Circus and many others around the world. I’m also the award-winning author of three books of fiction and poetry, five children's picture books, and 30+ magazine publications. My audience-centric workshops, masterclasses, and creative consultation services are enjoyed by entertainment companies, theaters, and educational organizations alike.
