Kanopy Recommendation

European Folktales from Jim Henson

Jim Henson's The Storyteller
2024: 9 episodes: 3 hr, 35 min
Uses 3 tickets: 72 hours access

Fans of Jim Henson most certainly are familiar with 'Labyrinth', the many Muppet movies, and even 'The Muppet Show', but less well known is Jim Henson's 'The StoryTeller', a live action/puppet program airing in the late 1980's.

All nine episodes feature the titular Storyteller (and his sarcastic dog) relating a charming, magical and narratively faithful old European folk tale. This is a gift for fans of both Jim Henson's body of work and for fans of Medieval European folk tales in general.

Kanopy is free with your library card, providing 21 tickets each month to watch streaming movies, documentaries, and TV shows.
