All Sun Jester's talks and entertainments aim to enlighten, divert and amuse audiences of all sizes and ages.

Songs and stories from the decade that put flowers in our hair, invented the modern teenager and took us out of this world. The era when Rock and Roll evolved into Pop, featuring artistes such as Dusty Springfield, The Beatles and Cat Stevens.

We can also provide a full afternoon or evening of period music.

Sun Jester is a family business that offer a range of informal talks and entertainments for groups of all interests including after dinner entertainments. With a usual duration of 45–60 minutes, they can be adapted to suit requirements.

We have been working in the field of Heritage Education for over 25 years.
