A
master of literary collage, David Novak animates his concerts,
contrasting the familiar with the surprising, simplicity with
complexity and the ordinary with the fabulous. In him, the circus
high-jinx of a veteran entertainer, and the simple power of the spoken

"David
Novak is the most eclectic storyteller on the scene today. Just when
you think you've got him pegged, he surprises you with complete
originality and insight. His retelling of Cinderella in iambic
pentameter goes a long way towards 'reviving Ophelia'. His tale of
Sterling, the salt shaker that falls in love with the sugar bowl,
surpasses Anderson. Whatever the occasion, he always knows the right
tale to tell. "To Tell," Novak says, "means To Discern. Choosing the
right story at the right time for the right reason, is the real art of
the storyteller." Judging from his choices, he is a true storytelling
artist."
