Told rather than read, and firmly for adults
What happens
Three tellers, about twenty-five minutes each, working from memory rather than a text. Two intervals and out by half ten.
What it is not
Not a reading and not for children. Some of the material is dark and none of it is simplified.
The room
Forty people around a fire in a low room. It is warm, close, and the back row is about four metres from the teller.
