I just want to say thanks to everyone, especially Trevor. It's kinda nice to hear that I will be missed this year, even if it may sound a bit conceited saying it. I will be back at least one weekend this summer to torment everyone. I don't know how I will survive without 7am fight calls, rolling around in mud, and not having the "faire smell" in my hair. Something tells me it won't be easy. But I miss you ALL. And thanks again.

Personally, I did have quite a bit of fun playing nobility when I did. It wouldn't be my top choice due to the love I have for playing Penfold, but with the right mindset and the right reactions from the lower class, upper class can have tons of fun.
But enough of that, I'm looking forward to this year. It's going to be a great one! Returning acts, changes here and there, heck, even I'm doing something that I haven't for years. Woo ah!

I have to agree with brian. The difference for me in playing nobility was simply a change in focus. As Queen I really believe that I was there for the kids. Especially the little girls. So that was the part of the audience I really focused on interacting with. That is not to say I didn't intereact with the rest of the audience it's just they were the ones I got the best response from. Probably because they really believed I was Queen. Then when I played Frau my focus was much more on the teenagers and young adults of the shire. For me it's all about finding the group of people that you can effect the most. The great thing about characters like Penfold is that he affects everyone. That is cause Brian Rocks!
Ohh and Pooka. I don't know what I will do without you this year. I really don't want to think about it.

Well folks... it took me a few... I told John and Now I am telling you... I will not be able to be the Sheriff this year, though I would love to do nothing more, I simply cannot afford it. I need the job I have and I have a Viking Re-enactment I am trying to get on its feet that demands the rest of my time. I am sure the Man that will be playing the Sheriff is more then able. Have a good year at faire and ....... THE VIKINGS ARE COMING !!
WITH MY REGRETS

I know who it is, but I haven't seen John posting it so I am unsure if I am to say anything.
