Rooms in your property can be taken back in time, recreated as a Medieval or Tudor physician or surgeon’s room, or as an armoury
. Alternatively the display can be set up out doors in an authentic tent. All presentations are performed in a
humorous manner to provide entertainment and education for the whole audience.
Please
note: unlike many re-enactors and historical interpreters, I do not regard this as a hobby. My presentations, be they
light-hearted or more serious, are all thoroughly researched to ensure your clients get access to the most accurate information
possible.
