Romeo, by Depardieu perhaps, welcoming working storyteller (9)
I believe the answer is:
raconteur
'storyteller' is the definition.
(I know that raconteur is a type of storyteller)
'romeo by depardieu perhaps welcoming working' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'romeo' could be 'r' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 'r' is present in the answer.
'working' could be 'on' (on can mean working or activated) and 'on' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for raconteur that I've seen before include "One who tells amusing tales" , "A good teller of tales" , "One relates" , "One spinning yarns" , "Teller of anecdote" .)
