Illustrated Talks and Lectures
by author A.J Marriot

A.J Marriot - 'The Merry Wit'
‘A.J’ is a recognised authority on the lives and careers of Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, and Butlins’ Holiday Camps, and his lectures have been the highlight of many Literary-Luncheons, Film Festivals, theatre shows, and fan club Conventions all over the UK, and in Europe since his first one in 1989.
His audio and visual lecture/presentations can be tailored to last from forty-minutes to two hours, and are always punctuated by witty ad-libbing, observations, and inter-action with his audience. What most people find remarkable is that he uses no notes – but catch him out if you can!



Newspaper Reviews
“LAUREL and HARDY in Nottingham and Lincoln”
A talk by author A.J Marriot at the Lace Market Theatre.
It seems incredible that icons such as Laurel & Hardy came to Nottingham, but they did and AJ Marriot’s talk showed an excellent level of both knowledge and passion for the topic.

“LAUREL and HARDY in YORKSHRE”
Liberally sprinkled with surprises aplenty, and lavishly illustrated with hundreds of stills, programmes, posters and actual footage, AJ Marriot’s show “Laurel and Hardy in Yorkshire,” was a most satisfyingly enjoyable and edifying tour de force.
