Description
Mrs. Dipsworth is a fairy godmother-style character with a larger-than-life presence and a highly interactive presentation. She reads stories chosen by the teacher, librarian, or host that align with their current theme or curriculum. Songs and dances that complement the story are added to enhance the overall experience, and the delivery is comparable to that which every spunky grandmother would give. Children ages 0 through 11 have been entertained by Mrs. Dipsworth’s storytime since 2011. School districts such as Fort Worth ISD, Irving ISD, Aledo ISD, Dallas ISD, Keller ISD, and more have created extended curricula including regular visits from Mrs. Dipsworth. Dallas-Fort Worth native Sheran Goodspeed Keyton beautifully transforms from her regular live performance persona to become this fun and engaging character. Sheran Goodspeed Keyton has been acting and singing professionally for more than 30 years. She has performed in many venues all over the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and has toured nationally and internationally. During the past 20 years, Sheran Goodspeed Keyton has partnered with many arts organizations in the area to produce original works. She performed as an artist with Big Thought in Dallas ISD for the past 14 years. Photo by Freddie Watkins, Forever Photography Studios.
