Quiz - it’s all just a bit of fun.

A good quiz should be an enjoyable experience, exploring shared knowledge and provoking reason and deductive thinking. At the end of a good quiz you should feel invigorated and aware of how you can play the game better next time. You know that there is always a chance that you could win!

I take great pleasure in writing and producing shows that inspire people to think, play and be competitive - but without any fear of losing or being humiliated.

Think about it…

Answering questions is a real joy for many people. The truest pleasure comes from contemplating a question that makes you think, recall and deduce an answer. If you don’t get the answer right, you find out the truth anyway. Win win. You get to play and you get the answer!

On the flip side, if you can’t even begin to dig for an answer the fun is lost. That is what i call ‘trivia’ - meaningless titbits designed to infuriate and depress even the deepest thinkers. The fear of being wrong comes when even the hope of giving a sensible answer is denied.

E.g.

Question: “Who is the Queen of Belgium?”

Answer: I don’t know, I don’t care and just LEAVE ME ALONE!

Quizmaster

Over the last 15 years I have written, produced and hosted more than 1200 quiz shows. I have created shows for TV, online, in pubs, theatres, conferences, Weddings, holiday parties and many more.

My shows are an effective and enjoyable way raise money for good causes and bring large groups of people together to take part in a shared experience.

I write for my love of performance and hosting. My greatest pleasure is to create fun, intelligent environments where people can play, rest, listen, talk and feel good about themselves and those around them.
