Medieval times

[edit]

In medieval times, minstrels, troubadours, and court jesters would continue this tradition of performing comedic music, some satirical, accompanied by musical instruments. Court jesters in particular would display their wit and humour through songs, jokes, and physical comedy as a way to offer critiques on society and authority. They would work in public squares or were officially hired as licensed fools to work directly under the King or Queen.[1]
