You can do this using either of two methods. You can use MS Agent with
scripts to animate the characters or you can use any of the reader programs
available for the visually impaired.
See:

However; I would recommend strongly against it. A computer generated voice
is cute when used briefly as a punch, but gets old very, quickly. If you
are afraid of public speaking, you are normal. Practice and familiarity of
the material will help to overcome this fear.

If you want to use this at a kiosk, for instance, with a voice over by a
human speaker; than use the narration feature or record sound files and play
them in the presentation.
