The idea of SJP Entertainments was formulated in 2022 by it’s founder Steve Patterson, and then co-created by both Steve Patterson and Amber Boyden in 2023. The company and its fundamental purpose is to offer a large number of entertainment formats to a wide range of audiences. With current audiences ranging from 1 to 101, we are excited to bring our varied offerings to a venue near you!
Steve Patterson – Co-Creator/Director/Performer/Entertainer
I’m Steve Patterson and I’m the founder and co-creator of SJP Entertainments. I have been involved in entertainment for the majority of my life. I started acting on the stage at the age of 8. From here, my passion for the stage grew and grew and I continued to act in different productions, winning different awards. My acting spanned from amateur pantomime productions to semi-professional Shakespeare. I continued my theatre journey at university where I got a BA Hons in theatre.
After graduating, I took a brief 10 year hiatus from the entertainment industry working for Mecca Bingo as both a show host, and then a General Manager. Throughout the time I spent with Mecca Bingo, I was heavily involved in the corporate entertainment side of the business. Upon leaving Mecca Bingo I decided to go back into my love – entertaining! And the rest is history!!
Amber Boyden – Co-Creator/Creative Director/Technician
I’m Amber Boyden and I’m the co-creator and creative director for SJP Entertainments. Having spent a number of years living in Spain, I am now enjoying being back in the UK and working to bring our wide range of entertainment to as many people as we can.
My background lies in creative design for a number of companies. Alongside this I am also a property manager by day, however by night, I am SJP Entertainments technician and sound engineer. It’s been a fun journey so far and I can’t wait to see what is next!
