Dramedy strikes the medieval revival set
With all those bloody sword fights and saucy getups, 12th century throwbacks are breeding grounds for drama. The Faire follows the behind-the scenes lives of five performers at one of these renaissance fairs located in the backwoods of northern California. Resisting irrelevance in a society no longer titillated by sorcery or tortured by the black plague, the Actress, the Virgin, the Old Burnout, and others band together to shield their odd little world from the naysayers. Tragic? Yes, but mostly funny.
General admission.
