Ninja Invasion, Reconnecting with Old Friends, Edward Cullen, and the Local News!

What an eventful day we had today out at Four Winds Faire!!!


The day started out with a ninja invasion of the last day of Pirate and Buccaneer weekend brought to you courtesy of Willy's Wily Wenches!  Done as a way to bring fairness to ninja lovers everywhere (and we are all about fairness since we are getting revenge on history!), an homage to Full-Time Ninjas (gotta love the indie filmmakers!), and as a way to tease our beloved friend Capt. Thom Bedlam (a truly awesome performer that we feel privelaged to call our friend) who managed to unwittingly get caught up in the promo video for Full-Time Ninjas, we donned our ninja gear instead of our usual wench attire for opening gate.  Many laughs were had by those in attendance and pictures were taken.  As soon as the pics get uploaded, we will definitely link to them here so keep your eye out for them!


Today was made even better by our reconnecting with our friend, Paul Bibeau.  Paul is the organizer behind Troup CareFest which we performed at last year.  His efforts helped raise food, clothes, and funds for many local charities in September of 2009.  Paul is truly a wonderful man and we had such fun performing at Troup CareFest.  We look forward to working with him again while helping our community in the near future!


During our second show of the day, we had a celebrity show up in the audience... well, not so much a real celebrity as a dead ringer for one!  Michael, a young man who could seriously be a stand-in for Edward Cullen, was dragged up on stage and given the illustrious opportunity of taking our 'How to be a Wench' class brought to the world courtesty of the University of Wenching at Stratford-Upon-Avon!  Pics of what was called a Twilight fanfic gone horribly awry will be posted as soon as they are uploaded, we promise!


As if today wasn't already awesome enough, CBS 19, Tyler's local CBS affiliate, came out to do some filming at faire.  While there, Anita was interviewed and parts of our show were filmed.  Tune in to the news tonight at 10 to catch the footage!


Next weekend is St. Patrick's Day weekend at Four Winds!  What fun debauchery will take place?  Come out in person and find out for yourself ;-)
