2010 Performer of the Day Awards

[Tudor-Diva]

As many of you may know on each performance day we give special recognition to that day's outstanding member of the Performance Comapny.  The awards, handmade by our own Madam Nina are beautiful, highly coveted and worn with pride. So, without further ado, here are this season's winners (new recipients each performance day forthcoming).  If you see them out and about, give them a hearty pat on the back, or handshake for a job well done.  It is proving already to be extremely difficult this year to award this honor as we have so many outstanding performers on our cast.

Saturday, October 9
Nyl Stewart

In Deutschland they have Oktoberfest each year
With songs, food and games and oh so much beer.
The Family Von Cleves are our talented hosts
They hoist up their steins with cheers, prousts and toasts.
Nyl Stewart is Fynn, a rock star most wild,
His performance this day made everyone smile!

Sunday, October 10, Stephen Dodd – Henry VIII

Henry VIII is a jolly good king,
While he strolls in the lanes he laughs and he sings.
Handsome he is with his charming bright smile
You know well he's coming for many a mile.
Stephen Dodd plays him well as our new English King
He's had HUGE shoes to fill, that is no easy thing.

Saturday, October 16, Stephen Ford-High, The Lord Mayor

Ever on the go, running to and fro,
The Lord High Mayor is never ever slow.
Messages from good King Henry keep him on his toes,
Which task he takes seriously and it really shows.
Stephen Ford High, you are a joy to have around,
As you tend to your duties about our quaint town.

Sunday, October 17th – Niki Marshall as Grandmamma
The Transylvanians have Grandmamma who they love most dear,
She limps through New Market spreading horror and fear.
Her leeches and potions and alchemy are on hand,
And she'll read you the bones that she rolls in the sand.
Whisper to her hump, it might tell you its name,
Once you meet her on the path, you will never be the same.
Niki Marshall you are awesome with your wacky and weird ways
Thank you for your work in these warm autumn days.

Saturday, October 23rd – Da'Rel Johnson as Obsidian

The battle cry rings out from the fierce Barbarian clan,
It's the voice of our Obsidian, Queen Vendela's right hand man.
His presence is most awesome and a power to behold,
His menacing countenance is fantastic, stony and bold.
His face may be stern, but don't you be fooled,
He's sweeter than a lamb with soft, fluffy wool.
If you see him around, please grant him his due
Da'rel Johnson is his name and he's coming for you!
