[Ponte Alto] Storvik's Performer's Revel - February 13

[Grey Goose]

Tired of the cold and snow?  Eager to curl up and listen to the bards, watch
a play, see a juggler? Then Storvik's Performer's Revel is just the thing!

Highlights!!  Storvik's Bardic Champion will be chosen!
                  Performances from all comers!
                  A good time will be had by all!



Continuing a tradition whose origin is lost in the mists of time, the
ancient and venerable Performers’ Revel will take place in the vast halls of
Caer Bear. This is an event OF performers FOR performers BY performers! The
call goes out to all musicians, singers, poets, dancers, actors,
storytellers, jugglers, and other practitioners of the performing arts.
Novice performers are particularly encouraged. Are you perhaps reluctant to
perform before a packed and noisy hall? Then this event is especially for
you! By long-standing tradition, we have no audience—everyone who attends
must contribute at least one performance. But fear not! The definition of
“performance” is quite elastic.

Give it a try!

Surely the efforts of the Bards ensure immortality, for good or ill. To be
sure that the deeds and glories of Storvik are properly remembered, the
Baron and Baroness will be selecting their Bardic Champion during the day.
Their Excellencies enjoy a good tale and song, so please let them know of
your willingness to serve.

ALSO!!  Our own Poeta Atlantia, Lady Teleri the Well Prepared, is sponsoring
a poetry challenge for performance of poetry on the theme of Spring.

Practicalities: By ancient custom, the revel will be held at the home of
Baron Igor Bear and Baroness Fevronia Murometsa. The site is wet (as long as
you are 21 or older) and very cheap! The hall opens at 10 am, performances
usually start around noon and continue until the last vestiges of energy run
out. The only fee is $12 to cover the feast—Baron Igor will conduct his
traditional proof that cooking is indeed a performing art! Any questions
concerning the feast should be directed to owlharp at juno.com or (301)
390-4428 (before 9 pm please)
(NOTE BENE: small children may find the need to sit quietly rather tedious,
so parents may want to make appropriate childcare arrangements.)
Performances are required of all attendees.
