PUBLIC SPEAKING

I’ve been presenting my musical talks since 2016, and they’re guaranteed to add a bit of fun to your club meeting or event! Even my darker topics have a humorous edge.

Based in Dorset, UK, I’m normally prepared to travel throughout Dorset, Somerset, and Wiltshire – but will certainly consider bookings further afield.

Perfect for social clubs, WI, u3a, Probus, etc.

​”Thank you very much for your session today –
we all enjoyed it and I have had some lovely feedback”

Five talks to choose from:

Late Flowering Lyricist poster
Lifting the Lid Talk poster
Censored Talk
One Gun Two Dead talk poster
Musical Musings Talk poster

The standard talks are 45 minutes plus time for questions at the end, but I can make minor adjustments to suit your requirements. 

​Typical comments include: “It was so nice to be able to hear all the words you were singing”, and “We really enjoyed something that was a little bit different”. 

My fee for community groups of up to about 50 people is £40 + 40p per mile travelling expenses. For larger audiences and commercial organisations, please contact me to discuss.

I live in Sherborne, Dorset, and am normally prepared to travel throughout Dorset, Somerset and WiltshirePlease contact me to discuss the options for bookings further afield.

From March to October I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings; November to February, daytime only. I will always consider a short-notice booking to cover a cancellation.

I play an acoustic guitar, unplugged in small venues, or through an amplifier and with a microphone for larger ones. I can supply all the equipment, which is PAT tested, and I hold Public Liability Insurance.

Please feel free to contact me to discuss any of the above, on 07896 354616, 01935 815497, or email info@mirandapender.com
