Entertainers
Our After Dinner entertainers are different to the stereotypical view of an after dinner speaker, in the fact that they are more informative than merely humorous. Simple examples of this are Graham Mitchell, a notable wine expert, Bob Shaw, NATO Advisor, Debbie Wiseman, a film music composer and conductor, or Peter McDonald, a practising Surgeon. They provide unique insights into their worlds, with stories that are informative and interesting, as well as amusing. For a more cultured way to end an evening, please call us for advice.
Our after dinner entertainers are more suited to events, where the audience appreciate more than just purely humour or a visual spectacular performance. They do tend to work better at the smaller conferences and events, where there is more interaction with the audience, which helps to create a more intimate and relaxed environment.

His practice has covered both criminal (defence and CPS) and civil law (medical negligence, property and insolvency).
