 Hello Everyone


This is a sample of the proposed dialogue that will occur during the fighting performance at Ypsilot according to David.
*********



6:45 Trumpet sounds; two knights in armor come on stage.

Herald:  Good my lords and ladies all! These two knights, Lord _______ and Lord  ________, have sworn to do battle this day for the glory of those whose favors  they carry. My Lords, are you ready?   ___________ Then Lay  on!

(Two SCA fighters bash each other with rattan swords on shields (the  “loud” fight) until one sinks under a rain of blows. The victor helps the  defeated up; they bow and exit.)
********


Two Warriors come on stage as trumpet  sounds again.

Herald: Good my lords and ladies all! These two warriors,  Lord _______ and Lord ________, have come to do battle this day with the  favorite weapons of knights everywhere. We present “jeu de la Hache,” or “the  game of the axe.” My Lords, are you ready?   ___________ Then Lay  on!
(Two Sword Club fencers fight with poll-axes until some sort of  decision or conclusion is reached. The victor helps the defeated up(?); they  bow and exit.)
**********


Two Actors come on stage as trumpet sounds  again.

Herald: Good my lords and ladies all! Our third and final combat  features Lord _______ and Lord ________, who come armed only with the long  sword. Do not try this at home. My Lords, are you ready?    ___________ Then Lay on!
(Two theatrical combatants fight with  steel longswords until some sort of decision or conclusion is reached. The  victor helps the defeated up; they bow and exit as Trumpet  sounds.)


Herald: My lords and ladies, your applause for the three local  organizations who have brought you this entertainment:
The Society for  Creative Anachronism (points to Knights and to table) .....and .......The Ann  Arbor Sword Club (points to warriors and to table) ..... and ....... The Ring  of Steel (points to actors and to table) .....  (gestures for  applause).


And now..... Trumpet cue) we introduce to you 
(members of  the C of C for the auction).... (and whatever else the Herald should say about  that).
