///Well, since a number of the server's bards have already turned us down, I hoped that being inclusive might help to widen the net a little.

/// Sorry, but at present, the Performers' Guild does not have enough members to put on a proper performance.

///I'll suggest an alternative, then. If you'd like to take part in something different to the usual BGTSCC experience, create a lowbie alt with perform skill and take it from there. No combat is required and we won't ever make you roll skills.

///(My original alternative was an awful theatrical flouncy strop, so be thankful you got the magnanimous version) ;)

// Both perform and charisma are not that vital.

We're all about RP and having fun. It can be a quite a story to go from a total disaster in performing but with practice, go through a performance without faults (or being chased off the stage). Creativity comes a long way. In fact, we have a member with no points in perform and cha.

We never ask for skill rolls but a DM might, so you are still encouraged to RP your skills/cha. Though with bardic inspirations, buffs and perform items -anyone- can get a decent perform. in PnP, as little as a DC 15 in perform is considered an enjoyable performance.

Pretty much anyone can join, as long as they have the dedication and will! :D
And its perfectly alright to join in on a performance or two to see how we work before making a final decision...

Come everyone!

The play evolves around a campfire ... we know many of you have such experience, so little acting is required there ... it involves a gypsy potions maker ... a cleric of a goodly diety ... as for the starlet *he grins* we have three of the most beautiful ladies on the coast who are all vieing for that position.

Come join the fun and be a part of this production!

A red-headed young woman chewing on on a toothpick walks up to Herran. Once certain she has the bard's attention, she spits out the toothpick and begins to speak.

"Howdy. Y'all still lookin' fer bodies? Ain't much work to be had now that harvesting season's over. Oh, name's Jessie by the way."

She grins as she finishes speaking, and offers her dirt-soiled glove to Herran for a handshake.

"aye that we are Jessie" *he grins completing the handshake, ignoring the dirt completely* "i will be making announcements soon as to when to meet at the theater and discuss the play along with what parts we are looking to fill."

"Name is Herran by the way . and is a pleasure meeting you."

Activity in and around the Theater has noticeably grown as casting continues.

It seems scribes have been busy copying scripts as people are seen reading and reciting on their way out. Whatever the play is about, many of them are laughing as they read.

While many from the cast were missing, those who showed up had a pleasant time sharing latest news and gossip. There was an unexpected but welcome visit and also a strange cat. The cat made friends with Nerys and was seen trailing after as she left for the Greyfox camp.


// TWO rehearsals next weekend.

Saturday 6pm EDT - 10pm GMT
Sunday 3pm EDT - 7pm GMT
