The open stage went on without a hitch and seemed to be thoroughly enjoyed by those who attended. Performances were given by Freya, Luke, Nixidea, a dueat by Herran and Freya, Guide Kenan and Wesmile.

The prize of ten bags was given to Guide Keenan for her dedication to Moreneth.

Brows were raised and a wide applause given, when Herran asked Freya for permission to officially court her which she joyfully gave.

Thank you all for coming to enjoy our show ... we pray that you will join us again for future presentations.

in Our Lady of Joy

Herran Hymn

Director, White Mask Theater

Herran Hymn proposed courtship to Freya Evans!

Nixidea, Alexandra Keenan, Herran Hymn, and Wesmille Groston stood upon the stage as the votes were tallied.

The winning piece was a tribute to Moreneth performed by Alexandra Keenan.

"Imagine my surprise one day..."
"...when a chicken stood before me..."
"...and opened its beak in order to say..."
"'The weather, it grows stormy.'"

"A peer and I looked on with surprise..."
"...as the chicken clucked near a wagon..."
"...but then
True Seeing brightened our eyes..."
"...and before us stood a copper dragon!"

"Time passed, as time is wont to do..."
"...and the dragon soon became a friend."
"And thus tears flowed fast and true..."
"...when he met an untimely end."

"And so this ode is meant in tribute..."
"...to one taken far too soon by death."
"May his spirit soar high with freedom absolute - "
" - nevermore in chains, dear Moreneth."

Among all the drama and dangers some folks don't let themselves be discouraged. They are hanging up posters, more and more. Freya herself helps with it and sais to those who speak with her: "Come in peace and friendship and i'm sure we'll have a good time together. Don't miss it..... Besides some good prize coins are waving for the best act that day.", she winks and walks on.

The open stage seemed to be thoroughly enjoyed by those who attended. Many great performances were given by Llanwyr & Marai, Fierleth, Vala, Marai, Herran and Freya.

The prize of ten bags for the best act this time was given to Marai for her elven view of miracles.

I am glad we could continue even after a short interruption. That way we showed that we won't ne stoped by shadows and their messages. Where darkness is, there is also light. We still fullfilled our dream to perform tonight.

Thank you all for coming to enjoy our show ... we pray that you will join us again for future presentations.

May Lurue enchant your path

The winning piece was a tribute to Sister Adolina performed by Alexandra Keenan.
"Memories... pressed between the pages of my mind..."
"Memories... sweetened through the ages just like wine..."
"Quiet thoughts come floating down..."
"...and settle softly to the ground..."
"...like golden autumn leaves around my feet..."
"...I touched them and they burst apart with sweet..."
"...memories."

"Sweet memories."

"Memories... pressed between the pages of my mind..."
"Memories... sweetened through the ages just like wine..."
"Of prayer-clasped hands and red bouquets..."
"...and twilight trimmed in purple haze..."
"...and laughing eyes and simple ways..."
"...and peaceful nights and gentle days..."
"...with her."

"Sweet memories."

"Memories... pressed between the pages of my mind..."
"Memories... sweetened through the ages just like wine..."
"Of soup bowls filled to overflowing..."
"...and grateful smiles constantly showing..."
"...and children laughing as they played nearby..."

"...I made a promise that I would not cry..."

"...at the memories."

"Sweet, sweet memories."
The Guide donated her winnings, along with a matching contribution, to the soup kitchen.
Word spreads that the event raised a grand total of seventy-five bags for the charity.

The open stage night was enjoyed by those who attended. All performances were wonderful, within which Terri 'Xon, Alexander Marshall and Thedran nobly took themselves out of the competition. They performed for joy and to teach at the same time.

In the end were left with also lovely and heartwarming perormances: Lady Mayra, the Guide Alexandra Keenan, Cosimo DeLucca and Aidan Thatcher. Most found the beautyful words and lyrics of the Guides' song worth a vote. So she was elected as the best performance this night and donated her coins for the cause. Also many other participants and the audience donated.

The donations were given to the kitchen in the church of Ilmater, to feed the poor. So they can also keep it running like Adolina used to do.

Thank you to our all the good people who donated generously.
Thank you to our great audience who came to see us as we came to see them.
A special thank you to my two helpers:

Ronja Leonhart
and
Vala Dunn.

May Lurue enchant your path
~Freya Evans~

///Donations of 84 k gold have been taken by DM Arrakeen. :)

This time the open stage with the theme Midwinter Hope had two winners! Mr Tree & Cormac were so noble and donated their price. Also some other participants and audience and helpers did.

But once again, wonderful somgs and poems and tales ahve been shared. They could light up the dark times, showing that the first half of the winter was already behind us. Well done everyone!


[parchment]Thank you!

It took a while to find the right people in Beregost thi time. The donations from the Open stage Midwinter Hope were still given to the farmers of Beregost to cover lost crops and to buy new tools.

tradition thus comes word;  another evening of esthetic revelry,  titled appropriately  "Sunlight's Delight
and Moonlit Nights" is planned wherein all are invited to attend.

The Performer's Guild would like to extend an invitation for interested parties to join us at our public Open Stage Night and perform or observe as desired.

Herran can be seen out and about checking on all the posters, making sure they are all hanging properly and can be well seen. He whistles as he walks from one to the other smiling and offering greetings to all as he passes by.

Glorious Day!

"Merry meet, artful elite and to those soon treated. Please be seated."
"Welcome  is  hereby  extended  to all  attended:  splendid  evening, greetings from the  White
Mask  Theater!  Blessed  be the gathered  and those joining; for faces familiar,  and faces  new,
the troupe's rejoicing. Voice of the eve, host for theme of solar and lunar, she's known as Oona."

Image
The White Mask Theater held it's second  OPEN STAGE NIGHT of 1355DR on the 4th eve of Mirtul. Taking place inside the ivory auditorium,
Hostess for the evening was the gossamer clad Oona Siofra.  In celebration of Greengrass and the recent arrival of Spring, the theme "Sunlight's
Delight and Moonlit Nights,"
encouraged  participants to find  their  inspiration in the  interpretation  of all things of,  or under,  the sun and/or
moon.                                                                                                                                                                                                            

Sponsored by House Darius,  prize pool  for the evening  was incomparably generous - the Trading Company  going so far as to provide a custom
carved Mastercraft Lute for the winner, and a sum of 100,000 gold pieces split between placements first, second and the two-way tie for third.
 
Following recent tragedy, the inspired assemblage was dedicated to the memory of the late Lord Luke Darius.
 
Image

                                                 ♪  Kaylee and Camaris performed a duet imbued with the essence of hope.
                                                 ♪  Deladra contributed a song of the Moon Maiden, played on the lyre.
                                                 ♪  Adelaide graced all with an illuminating display and ruminations of Light.
                                                 ♪  Croaker, limerick provocateur, drew on his times within a company of Mercenaries, and
                                                 ♪  Herran closed the show with a song of starry nights and the joy found in companionship.

 
By audience vote Kaylee and Camaris were awarded First Place!
 
Image
The aftermath of the event's resounding success brought favorable news for it's violet-haired hostess, validating creative effort and resulting in
the inheritance of the coveted Director's Song Book - graciously  given and gratefully received.  Positioned  alongside Herran Hymn, the horned
demoiselle Oona Siofra is named the White Mask Theater's new Assistant Director.
