We’ve been doing the Mystic Realms Fantasy Faire since 2003, but the last two years have been cancelled.
This year, it was on again and we were asked back.
To celebrate, my wife bought one of those prop vases we could use in the show. We were worried about how it arrive, but couldn’t hear rattling.

Friday morning we picked up ravena_kade at the train station and headed south.


We made good time, stopped for lunch, and were still a bit early for set up time.



Saturday morning everyone was there by 7 so we could practice before the rehearsal at 8.

Our first show was the historical.





Then, the stage show as part of the main story of the faire. I was a bandit along with the oldest child of glass, the others were all good guys who drive us off.



Then, another historical show.











Then, the second stage show.




It might not be clear in the photos, but the weather was perfect. Cool, but not cold. Dry. Sunny. A bit windy, but we weren’t doing fire so that is fine.
After the show everyone went out for dinner. It’s hard to find a table for 65 these days. The Chinese place we went to for years is take away only these days. Finally we settled at Olive Garden. Never been to one before. But, they were the only ones that would take a group that size.

In the morning we went to a diner for breakfast and found one across from a tank that was quite good.

Then, the group photo of everyone at the faire.

Same shows.


For the last one it was time to check the box.

And, it was fine. It worked well. Everyone seemed impressed.


At the end of the faire, take the tent down and pack up.

Monday morning it took a bit to check out of the hotel, but we managed.


We had breakfast at a different diner with royal lions.


A few hours to New York.

Then, a few more home.

All in all, a very good show! It was very nice to see friends again!
