Larry Lee Hensel

Dr. Larry Hensel is a creative tour de force and wildly inventive storyteller who blends the arts of singing, directing, writing, puppetry, and movement, into theatrical and musical works of intrigue and humor. As an educator, Hensel draws upon his Eastman pedigree, twenty-five years of teaching experience and his skills as a Certified Teacher of the Alexander Technique to equip developing singers, actors, dancers, and puppeteers to thrive in the complex arts of singing, acting and movement, and the imaginative world of storytelling.
