Once upon a time (a long time ago…) a holiday job performing fairytales in Myer city book department developed into an invitation to perform in a number of school libraries and now into a circuit that covers most of the State of Western Australia.

He enjoys performing in regional libraries and schools and has a fan base among city and suburban librarians who engage him to celebrate just about anything connected to books and community. These days he tells many stories of his own creation, loves to get large groups of children screaming on cue and introduces teenagers to the joy of reading through the experience of a gripping narrative.

Glenn has a wonderful selection of story material suitable for years PP through to High School. His middle and lower primary sets are distinguished by a VERY high degree of participation, ensuring maximum retention and guaranteed to turn your students into playground storytellers. His stories for upper primary and High School are by turn nasty, funny, inspiring, bizarre and sometimes all of these. He keeps any class, even year 9’s, focused and attentive for 50 minutes or more.

Master of Ceromonies Services / Facilitator

Glenn B Swift – the Man you want in a room full of people when something needs to be said or done or the energy needs to shift in a certain direction, or away from another. Some of the nice things said about Glenn as a presenter/actor/MC/ facilitator have been:

“You have extraordinary stage presence, a quality difficult to describe, but it makes you easy to look at.”

“You have a very good voice, deep and interesting. Are you on radio? I bet you’re a storyteller.”

“What happens when you get on stage is the audience relaxes. We feel we can trust you, that you’re not going to embarrass us.”

Which doesn’t mean he’s going to leave the audience entirely in passive comfort, because as much as Glenn enjoys being entertaining and useful to an audience or group as a speaker , he enjoys creating audience participation, and a feeling from all of having contributed to the occasion.

What is particularly useful about Glenn is he comes in so many different packages – Hoax Expert (name an accent, he’ll make people believe), Theme MC (appropriate material researched and written), Storyteller (he still does a lot of work with kids, and keeps 100 six-year olds focused for up to an hour – really!), Group Workshop Facilitator, Games Leader, Brain-Stormer and when you need it – Quizmaster!

Comedy comes naturally to him and usually arises from a present situation, and he can write funny material to order, after an interview with a key informant.

It’s not just an act.
