We are ...

The Lord Mayor's Company

     

A stage act of many talents. Our repertoire currently includes four 20 to 30 minute send-ups of Shakespearean works. A fifth is on the way as well as several other projects with a renaissance flavor.

 

My, where has the time gone? The Joplin Renaissance Faire has passed and we welcome all the new friends we made there. And now the last weekend of the Muskogee Renaissance Faire has passed. Both festivals were really great for us and the energy from those attending our shows has been appreciated.

The introduction of Beatrice to the group has led to more new discoveries in our shows and in the ways we are interacting in the lanes, so Very Huzzah for new members. Beatrice’s bio can now be found on our About Us page for those who have been asking about her origins.

Kate has been meeting with the folks at KCRF and it appears the Smoker in Kansas City will be hosted by the LMC again. Early reports are that a change in venue (no longer between a chapel and an active stage with kids walking by) will result in an even bigger and bawdier time than we have ever experienced before.  If you are one of those of legal age and have a bawdy disposition, we invite you to join us there. More details will follow as we confirm entertainment and other matters. For more information and to pre-purchase Faire and Smoker tickets you can go to their site, a link to which can be found on our links pages.

Some of you took advantage of our invitation last month and we have been delighted in hearing from you. But if you missed it, we’ll let you know once again, for those who have been looking to contact members of the group directly, Alistair has taken it upon himself to manage for us a MySpace page that can be found at www.myspace.com/thelordmayorscompany . He has also established for us a gmail account at thelordmayorscompany@gmail.com . So if you have questions, commentary, reviews or photographic evidence to share with us, these should provide a communication venue.

We continue to wish that you come see us perform this year and let us know how we are doing. We hope to see you soon.

News Update

For those who missed out this Spring on seeing the Lord Mayor’s Company on stage at a Renaissance Festival, you still have another chance. Contracts have been exchanged and showtimes established for the LMC to be appearing at the White Hart Renaissance Festival. We will be there the second of their three weekends on June 28^th and 29^th.  We will be performing onstage three times a day and working on our Bocce and other pelf between shows. So come see us then. Or if that weekend is not good for you, we still recommend the White Hart Festival for its rustic charms and exuberant cast. For more information on the White Hart Festival visit their website, a link to which can be found on our links page. And look for our show times on the Schedule page.
