In recent years marshmallow catapults and pirate pistols have become popular weapons at PARF with patrons and cast alike. The following 5 minute video clip shows the death throes of Mad Tom and Humphreys as they are pelted without mercy by visiting street urchins.  ;D  :D  ;D

As a performer I'm bummed because they cut off the part that I wanted to see the most:  The Out.  How did they get out of it? :)

They got up and walked away.

No, literally. They eventually had enough and just got up, make some comment (forget what it was, Tim/Humpfrey told me about it afterwards), and walked away from the group. Best bit - and out - ever!
