Lighthearted storytelling programs for shared enjoyment
Stories with Dr. Ken are live storytelling programs built around classic humorous tales that have been making people laugh for generations.
Each program blends expressive reading, gentle physical comedy, and carefully chosen visuals to create an experience that is relaxed in pace, easy to enjoy, and full of moments of shared laughter. The emphasis is always on connection, clarity, and enjoyment—never on challenge or complexity.
Audience-Appropriate Storytelling
Stories are thoughtfully adapted to how different audiences best connect with humor and storytelling.
Some groups enjoy simple, moment-by-moment stories that can be appreciated without following a plot. Others enjoy richer language, narrative buildup, and the pleasure of seeing a story unfold. In every case, the goal is the same: a welcoming, enjoyable experience that meets the audience where they are.
That’s why Stories with Dr. Ken are offered in two distinct formats.
Choose the Right Story Program
Silly Stories
Designed specifically for Memory Care audiences.
Short, self-contained stories with clear visuals, gentle pacing, and no complicated plots. Residents can relax, re-engage at any point, and enjoy the moment—while staff appreciate a program that runs smoothly and predictably.

Where Old Stories Meet New Technology
Many of the stories in these programs are classics—some more than a century old. The illustrations, however, are brand new.
Each presentation uses images generated with advanced artificial intelligence tools, transforming story descriptions into creative, one-of-a-kind artwork. The result is a delightful mix: time-tested stories brought to life with modern visuals that audiences often react to with curiosity, recognition, and amusement.
