Description
The Writter is from Renaissance Faire, Irwindale, California
In a modern Renaissance festival there are stages or performance areas set up for scheduled shows, such as plays in Shakespearean or commedia dell'arte tradition, as well as anachronistic audience participation comedy routines. Other performances include dancers, magicians, musicians, jugglers, and singers. Between the stages the streets (lanes) are lined with stores (shoppes) and stalls where independent vendors sell medieval and Renaissance themed handcrafts, clothing, books, and artworks.
In addition to the staged performances, a major attraction of Renaissance fairs is the crowds of actors — both professional and amateur — who play historical figures and roam the fair, interacting with visitors. Visitors are encouraged to wear costumes, contributing to the illusion of an actual Renaissance environment.
