| Laws of Love by Rylie | |
| Law of love is a play about a peasant girl (Rylie) and a prince (Calyor) who falls in love. The prince isn't allowed to see the peasant or have a relationship with her, so he has to chose between his family or his love. I was a peasant girl in laws of love and I had to give a hug to Caylor, the prince. I didn't like that. I also had to get my head chopped off at the end because the King would allow the peasant to see his son. So, I got my head chopped off. | |
 |
I liked that part. I had to scream really loud. It was fun, but before I got my head cut off the Queen (Mackenzie) had to talk with the King (Levi). The Queen was trying to stop the King, but it didn't work. |
| The guards (Brett and Ryan) dragged me to my death. The beheadman (Brayton) walked behind. After got my head cut off the prince married 10 years later. The we all bowed and the play was over. The Medieval Feast was Awesome! | |
| Food Announcer by Caylor | |
| One of my parts at the Medieval feast was the Food Announcer. I had to announce Hors d'oeuvres from the King's kitchen. I would call, "Parsnips, Cabbage, Beets, Raw Carrots, AND....Pickles!" Then I had to announce Vegetables from the King's garden and said all the foods under that category. After I got done announcing the second course I played the part of the Muslim. | |
 |
And after I thought Alex and I were done the King asked me some questions then he pulled out a basketball. He said, "You are now the starting center on the Royal Basketball Team now go and defeat the Wildcats." I hurried over to the bleachers and announced the third course which was the meats. |
| The meats were: Ham, Squirrel, Pork, Pork Roast, Deer Jerky, Fish, Deer Bologna, Duck, Hasenpferrer, Deer Steak. I also played a prince in Laws of Love. Now I will give you some advice when you're a food announcer: 1. Speak Loud! 2. Speak Clearly! 3. And last advice is you have to be ready to ad lib or answer the questions that Mr. Jackson asks you. And I loved the Medieval Feast'!! | |
| Lord Randall by Jordan A. | |
| In the Medieval Feast, I was in the play Lord Randall. My character was Lord Randall's Mother. In the play Lord Randall's Mother asked Lord Randall where he has been and he replies that he has been at the greenwood or the forest. Mother asks him who met him there and he tells her that his truelove game him eels fried in a pan. However the eels were poisoned. Mother finds out that he is poisoned by asking him who got the scraps of food. He says his hawk and his hounds. | |
 |
In the next stanza when his mother asks him what happened to his hawks and his hounds he says that they stretched out their legs and died. His mother asks him what he gives everyone and he tells her that he gives his mother four and twenty milk cows, |
| he gives his sister his gold and silver, he gives his brother his houses and his land, and he gives his truelove hell and fire. Every stanza, after the sixth, when he says he is poisoned he gets weaker, so he starts to get lower and starts to kneel. On the last stanza he says that he gives his truelove hell and fire and he dies. His mother is crying as he dies. King Shawn of Zanders was crying through the middle of the play. It was very fun experience to be in this play. Lord Randall was played by Mitchell. He was a really good actor also. | |
| Lord Randall by MacKenzie O. | |
| I played the Queen in Laws of Love. My lines were "Dear his is in love let him love whoever he pleases." My other line was "What law your the King | |
 |
change the law." When you play the Queen don't be nervous your supposed to have fun and be funny. When Ashley was gone I was backup for her in Champions Decision. She was Lady of the Court. And know I will give you some advice, |
| "When you are in the gym you have to speak loudly and clearly. If Mr. Jackson tells you to speak loudly, then speak loudly so it doesn't take forever to get it right!" | |
