Yay we had a terrific time at Black Gryphon. The play went really, really well. I was so proud of all the cast they just blew my socks clean off. 
The Montani did two pantomime plays with narration. The Nun’s Priest’s Tale and The Wife of Bath’s Tale both by Chaucer.
Jack and Eleanor did the narration. Tristram, Rayne, Swain, Giovanna, Leon, Jack, and Bella were the general cast for both productions. Giovanna and Tristram both did outstanding jobs working in and with the audience as the Fox and the Knight. Jack and Eleanor both did terrific jobs narrating the plays. Eleanor narrated the Wife of Bath and Jack narrated the Nun’s Priest’s Tale. Swain (made it bigger) was a wonderful Chanticleer. You should have seen him “roaming” and “crowing”. Rayne made a fabulous Partelote and Queen. Bella rocked as the Old Woman and Young Maid (she did a great transition on stage between the two, which was neat). And of course Leon had great fun running amuck playing guard and hunter. The dance of the “fairies” made up of Mao, Rayne, Giovanna, Swain, Jack, Leon … (yeah it broke my brain too).
I hope that Tristram is able to convert it to DVD so we can have a cast party movie night sometime soon. Rayne has posted some of her pictures up on Flicker. I’m glad somebody remembered their camera. I sure didn’t. I did remember to bring it to photograph the bookmarks that Rayne, Govanna, and I created as gifts for the Heraldic Symposium Teachers. I did the calligraphy and we all did the illumination and white work. I think that they came out really well. Here’s a link to my Picasa photos of the bookmarks.
Court was nifty Njal and his lady got Ram’s horns for the Arts and Service. Rayne got a Ram’s horn for “kicking butt on the field” Father Gregory took a yellow belt from Roz. The Barony was gifted some arrow making materials (which sounds ever so much better than the Baroness was given a bunch of shafts…. ) So anywho here are some pictures from Court once I remembered that I had a camera.
I really like the bookmarks!
