Continuing a tradition whose origin is lost in the mists of time ... on 
Saturday, February 19th, 2011, the ancient and venerable Performers' Revel will 
take place in the vasty 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 
learning a new art or skill? Are you perhaps reluctant to perform before a 
packed and noisy hall? Then this event is especially for you! By longstanding 
tradition, we have no audience - everyone who attends is encouraged to 
contribute at least one performance. But fear not! The definition of 
"performance" is quite elastic. Give it a try! In addition, this year 
Performers' Revel will also feature as the venue for deciding our Storvik 
Baronial Bardic Champion! 

 
PRACTICALITIES: By ancient custom, the revel will be held at the home of Baron 
Igor Bear and Baroness Fevronia Murometsa, 2204 Amber Meadows Drive, Bowie MD 
20716. The site is wet (as long as you are 21 or older) and very cheap! The hall 
opens at 10am, 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! 

[NOTE BENE: small children may find the need to sit quietly rather tedious, so 
parents may want to make appropropriate childcare arrangements]. 

 
AUTOCRAT Information: our intrepid Baroness of Storvik, Baroness Sorcha will be 
serving as autocrat. She can be contacted at ebpayne at yahoo.com .
