School for Beggars
Wench & Bloke Auction* Wee Ones Sold Separately!
(*Adult Humor/Clean Language) Attend a hilarious mock auction hosted by the silver-tongued Lord High Sheriff, Sir Marshall Laww. No money is exchanged, but lots of laughter certainly is. Tasteful bawdiness abounds. Be forewarned, the Sheriff may also sing.
Trial & Punishment No crime, however trumped-up, goes unpunished!
Lord Marshall Laww metes out his arbitrary brand of justice on the guilty and the innocent alike. No peasant can escape the long arm of the Laww… especially when the jury (that’s you!) aids him in punishing unsuspecting villagers. Wackiness may ensue.
Knight Games......or how to live in a Medieval Manor!
The Lord High Governor leads the audience in ye olde sports and games including a Mock Joust, Playing at Cudgels, Skullduggery, Courtly Customs, The Goose Song, The Jester’s Joke off and a School for Beggars.
