Performing Arts Schedule
Coordinator: Lady Juliane Bechaumpe
This is just the performing arts portion of the schedule. The entire event schedule can be found here.
All start and end times should be considered approximate, per SCA custom. Those with an asterix are deliberately approximate or flexible; for example, "9:30pm" typically means "o-dark-thirty" and the time for Court is always dependent on the will of the Sovereign.
All performing arts activities will take place in or around the Village Green (the permanent pavilion to your right as you enter the site).
