EVENING OF MEDIEVAL ENTERTAINMENT

Saturday 7th June 2008
From 6-00pm until 9-00pm GoRedditch attended & experienced a super evening of entertainment, food and drink.

We were entertained in the surroundings of the Knight's encampment whilst sampling a traditional hog roast and a glass of mead.
We were amused by a real fire breathing jester and amazed at the tricks and illusions of the medieval magician. Perrotts Puppet Players gave their version of Saint George and the Dragon. 

Medieval music was provided by local group, Sloe Gin and to cap it all a team of very enthusiastic men re-enacted a medieval battle and fought each other with real weapons..if you don't believe it...see the pictures of the event below !
