Stages
The Feast of Fools
The Guild of Bloodstone present to you The Feast of Fools, back in the Garden with their relentless merry making. By day they jest with scholars, mythopoets, singalongs, fooling, country dancing, mummers plays and summer games. By night they carouse with jazz, folk and gypsy bands, music hall and musicians round the fire.
Bloodstone Arts present
The Feast of Fools
Sounds like Revolution!
The Guild of Bloodstone honour and promote Showmen drawing
upon the European Traditions of Arts, Crafts and Performance.
~ Recline ‘neath the Sun in our lush amphitheatre as we Play all Day ~
Cock an ear to the wisdom of Fools and swoon with our Troubadours.
Be counted in our Country Dancing and triumph in the Summer Games.
~ Dance ‘neath the Moon as we turn it up with Sounds of the Revolution ~
We have three wild nights of Folk Rock, Gypsy Jazz and Ska Roots sounds.
Behold the mystery play of Circulus and the dance of Simpatico Flamenco.
Drink and be merry in the Honeymoon Tavern where Tattooists, Fortune Tellers
and Tricksters ply their trade while Geezers croon ballads of the Music Hall.
