You´ll hear which Renaissance festival was designed by Escher (all uphill!), which is the hottest Faire, perks of small Faires and large Faires, unique traits of Faires all across the country, and, most importantly...what's the gold-star-standard faire! Plus, fainting queens, privy shrouds, ways to beat the heat in costume, opera, baritone-tenor jealousy, and..what if Queen Elizabeth and Mary Queen of Scots had met?
