About Brian and Jacqueline Sutton

Jacqueline and Brian Sutton are TWOgether Talks. Jacqueline is a retired English teacher, whilst Brian spent many years in amateur theatricals, property management and theatre management before retirement.

We are available in the greater Bournemouth area including Dorset, West Hampshire (including Southampton, Winchester and Lymington), the New Forest and South Wiltshire (including Salisbury). Other adjoining areas considered. Book early for 2024/2025 to avoid disappointment, (our diary is filling fast!). We have all our own equipment. Just provide us with a power point, 2 chairs and an audience and we will do the rest.

Whatever the subject, we believe in presenting it in an entertaining way with the odd quirky fact and amusing tale as we go along (snoring is so off-putting). Try us, we are rather different. Well, there's 2 of us for a start!
