Lancashire Belle
All The World's A Stage
As well as being booked for a wide variety of events open to the general public, Jane is a popular choice to bring her fabulous talent to a wide range of private events, ranging from family celebrations of all types to indoor street parties at clubs and village halls - anywhere and everywhere you can imagine enjoying a special 1940s themed occasion.
You name it, there is a good chance Jane will have performed there: garden parties, red letter days, function rooms, museums... in fact every type of venue you can think of, even inside secure military bases!
She can perform indoors or outdoors; for birthdays, anniversaries and weddings; on stage or on a dance floor; for 1940s afficiandos... and those having a first experience of 1940s music.
Below are just some of the ways in which you can tailor Jane's performance to your own choosing.
Just a quick note to thank you for a wonderful performance on our special day, made extra special by Jane. All of our guests congratulated us on our choice of entertainment. We will certainly be recommending her to anyone looking for good quality entertainment on their special occasion.

Stepping Back to the 1940s
Available from a thirty-minute show up to a full day mixed throughout. All your favourites and the well-known songs of the time, whether it’s singalongs, flag-waving or dancing. The perfect choice for the 1940s town or festival event, airshows, museums and steam railways
In The Mood
Grab your dancing shoes, this is the perfect accompaniment if you are planning a 1940s dance. Lancashire Belle has many songs in her vast repertoire of 1930s and 1940s songs for swing dancing, barn dances, palais glides - and not forgetting the odd jitterbug here and there. Ideal for 1940s events and dances and tea dances. DJ music for dancing can also be provided in between performances
We’ll Meet Again
Performing music and memories from across the WW2 years, including (amongst others) the songs of Vera Lynn, Gracie Fields, The Andrew Sisters and Glenn Miller. Lancashire Belle can also finish with her signature ‘Last Night of the Proms’ style flag-waving finale. Ideal for hotels, private parties, corporate functions or occasions where guests prefer to sit back, watch and engage with a show
Afternoon Tea
Afternoon tea is a quintessentially British tradition - and what better accompaniment to this than Jane singing a selection of classics and standards from the 1940s? No matter the location, as long as you have all the right ingredients, then you are all set for a delightful afternoon. Jane can sing in the background or more centre stage, your choice, and anything from 30-90 minutes - again your choice.
