I run an event at a medieval castle that has hired Peat since its inception. The man just never stops entertaining, from his actual shows through to the entire duration of the event, he is witty, down to earth and a genuine pleasure to be around. Laugh ? My ribs ache at the end of each day, no matter how much mead I imbibe to dull the pain !!! He is that joyous mixture of the consummate professional and a genuine comic genius, and just to top it all off he is a really nice guy! Kind of annoying really, one wishes he was merely human and exhibited some kind of flaw; maybe he snores?

We have had the pleasure of having DEVILSTICK PEAT perform for England's Medieval Festival at Herstmonceux Castle for over 20 years. He is not only the best jester in the UK, but he always thoroughly entertains and engages his audiences of all ages, no matter whether it is during his scheduled shows or impromptu walk-about. We would highly recommend him for any event, as long as it doesn't clash with ours :)
Jonathan Geisler Event Director

Devilstick worked well with us and drew great crowds at our annual joust event. he was creative , amusing, courteous and a great credit to the event. His Knowledge is good and he was enthusiastic and always had a smile during the day whatever the weather.

Devilstick Peat performed during our wedding breakfast and entertained a group of children as well as our adult guests. He was an absolute hit, entertaining our guests as they entered the dining room and then going around all the tables doing mix and mingle. Everyone was smiling and laughing and Peat added to the fun, celebratory vibe of our wedding. Peat then entertained the kids during the speeches, this was ideal as parents could relax and the kids didn't have to stay quiet. We heard laughter from the kids in the next room and after the speeches they wanted more! They loved it and have been talking about it ever since!
We cannot recommend Devilstick Peat highly enough; if you're after a talented, fun entertainer then he's the one! Just brilliant!

Peat worked miracles with a 'special needs' class of adults in Canterbury College back in the 1980. To see a couple of them demonstrating their new plate-spinning skills to the rather jealous college vice-principle was a tonic for them and for me. Thanks again, you are a saint

What a superb entertainer!!! The kiddies absolutely loved him and so did all the adults. Perfect in every way. The kiddies absolutely loved the workshop especially the plate spinning!!!! A massive thank you to Devilstick Peat and family for your 3 hour journey to the party. We all appreciated it with the performance that you put on. Would recommend in a heartbeat. Once again thank you for a superb time had by all!!!
