Friends of H-LAT

A fan based (and biased!) site in support of the Hanlon-Lees Action Theater!

About Me

THIS IS A FAN BASED SITE! Apparently there has been some confusion about that. We created this site to give everyone interested (fans, current and former members of the company, as well as friends and family of these current and former members) a place on myspace. You can click on the link below to visit the official site.


..
ALL of the photos on here have been submitted by people on our friends list. Some of the photos have been taken by these people themselves. Others have been found on the internet and submitted. If you see a photo on here that you have taken and you are not credited as the photographer, please let us know. Thank you.
Now that all of the official stuff is out of the way . . . here is a little bit about the company! The Hanlon-Lees Action Theater (H-Lat) is the longest running theatrical jousting company in the US. But more than that, H-Lat is also performs Wild West reinactments and provides fight choreography and performs stunts. They have appeared in several major motion pictures as well as appearing on TV in specials and documentaries for different media venues such as the History Channel.
