Franklin Ren Faire, 2021

[fbhjr]

We tested the new sword rack at this show. It seems to flex around the central shaft more than we expected. Not sure if that’s good or not.


Yes, we are a sword troupe, but all they really want from us is fire.


So, during the day we do swords for folks if they come up and ask.


But, there is a lot of sitting around too…


Saturday the show goes to 10 at night. That’s late when we needed to be there at 7 in time for the fire inspection and such.


But, the night time fire show is pretty cool. We got lucky and the fire swords survived another show.











We stayed over at the local Holiday Inn. They have a pancake robot for breakfast.


New Hampshire has an interesting way to keep social distance.


We did do daytime fire shows on the softball field too, which does give places to wait before going on.


Of course, the fire show in the daylight isn’t as interesting.


And, it seems windier.




I do wonder about some of those generational moments with our performers and their kids.


There is a lot of fire department help on site. I’m glad we didn’t need it.
