I have played many characters out there including Peasants, Guardsman, Pirates, Germans, Grave Robbers and Nobles.There is a feeling that you get working out at a Renaissance Festival, a real connection with the audience.That is about all for now… I have a Loving wife named Bobbi and a GIANT cat named Hoot (Pure breed Maine Coon).
