🕑 Added 2024-10-19 11:00:17 +0000 UTC When you get ready for the Renaissance Faire, but we are definitely going to be late 😈Following WW2, there began to be a resurgence in interest in medieval and renaissance history, most notable by the rise in folk music. Plays around the country began to include more tales with dragons or fantasy characters. One of the turning points was a fundraiser held by a schoolteacher, who set up their backyard in 16th-century England as a class activity, which was followed by a larger-scale event held at a fairgrounds to raise money for a radio station.Similar to what's seen today, volunteers set up booths re-enacting what life was like (blacksmiths set up an old forge, weavers set up looms, etc) and they blew up in popularity, with individuals setting up their own across the country.If you haven't been to one, they're typically set in Elizabethan England (sometimes during the era of Henry VIII, sometimes during the Viking Age, etc) but offer everything from jousting to hair-brading, fire-breathing, jester shows, Maypole dances, leather working, blacksmithing, jewelry-making, and of course, a re-enactment of some kind by the royal court. They attract such a huge audience that actors often travel from festival to festival, as professional Renaissance Faire performers. Interestingly, there's been ongoing debate about their accuracy. The original historians from the 1960s/1970s who provided guidance on the original festivals offered that the original festivals attempted to stick to authenticity so much that the experience was almost painful. Instead, they aim for the festivals to provide entertainment, and "trick into learning with a laugh!"My favorite parts are getting dressed up, drinking mead and sharing a turkey leg, and watching the jester shows which, with a nod to Shakespeare, are typically subtlety naughty 😈
