| Storytelling clubs operate in a variety of formats. Some clubs provide a place where anyone can come and tell stories to a small intimate and specialist audience ('floor-spots'); while other clubs run a programme of performances by professional or semi-professional storytellers, and many clubs do a combination of both. In 2007 the UK had in the region of 55 storytelling clubs: the larger, more prominent clubs provide a low key, small-scale circuit for storytelling, for a specialist-interest audience. | |
