Good afternoon!<br><br>
Euclid is this year's site for an annual gathering of performing medieval
and Renaissance bards from across the Midwest and the
<a href="http://tilted-windmill.com/bms11/"><b>Bardic Madness</a></b>
event is tomorrow, Saturday, November 21!<br><br>
In addition to all the singing, music, storytelling, etc, classes,
workshops, and performances, we in
<a href="http://filer.case.edu/org/commedia/"><b>The Confused
Greenies</a></b> will be holding a day-long session open to any and all
attendees to plot, rehearse, and star in a brand new play in the style of
<i>commedia dell'arte</i>. We'll be crafting a scenario outline
early in the day based on the classic stock character types and then
improvising the action and dialogue for a short performance as part of
the evening concert.<br><br>
The event is being held at the Slovenian Hall (aka the Recher Center) at
20713 Recher Ave., Euclid, OH, 44119, running from 9:00am until
10:00pm. The event is being hosted by the
<a href="http://cleftlands.cwru.edu/">Barony of the Cleftlands</a>, the
local chapter of the <a href="http://www.sca.org/">Society for Creative
Anachronism</a>. A simple lunch and a nice medieval style dinner are
available for purchase but all other activities - from the classes,
concerts, contests, and ball - are included in the site fee. Please
see the website for more information on the event and please join The
Confused Greenies to try some commedia improv and be on stage in only a
few hours!<br><br>
foolishly yours,<br>
