something different... presenting a Week of Wonders!

[wytchcroft]

Welcome, welcome and roll up one and all!

.

 
Ladies, Gentlemen, Fenians, Felons, Free-men and Friends...
we here make no distinctions - as we dance these honoured boards between the time zones, between day and night, light and dark, smoke and mirrors...
Magic.
MAGIC!

Ladies and Gentlemen 
Magic - let us not be mistaken -
Magic is why we are here and what we aim to celebrate this week!
A week of such special significance to some particular individuals... but of pleasure and interest (we hope) to the general public at large!

In short - let it be known that this week we shall be holding forth, holding court, holding hands – no, I jest - holding auditions. Yes indeed, if you have a link, a theme, a destination, anecdote to beguile the ear - a trick, in fact, to entrance the eye… then let it be known! We, the management, shall pull it up on stage with us here, under the spotlight, among the sawdust and tinsel and beneath this marvellous technological proscenium arch.

today is Baba Marta!

We can promise in the next few days - feats of celebratory circustry, sights rarely seen, and strange facts recalled by witnesses, first hand anecdotes and (most dazzling) the art of the hand itself, mysterious and marvellous.
Yes, the magical skills of well versed professionals and young hopefuls alike.

We hope you will enjoy the show!

Fabulous! And you have invited the Great Hermann! Of course, I am delighted! It is an exciting week! It is the Welsh National holiday, St. David's Day, today. Thursday is the Cornish National Holiday, St. Piran's Day! Today is also Martenitsa in Bulgaria, as per my dear friend who offers the tassels below! And on the 14th it is pi day and Einstein's birthday! Hurrah!

It is your birthday? Which day, if I may be so bold as to ask? How delightful!

John will be happy to regale you with renditions of the songs of Thomas Moore, of which he is naturally canonically fond, and I will be happy to perform a little magic, though it be humble in comparison. Severus - well I am not sure, but I dare say he will participate in some way.

great! well i hope it will hold interest as the week goes on - and indeed many great days this week (heh heh), my dad is cornish so St Piran's is quite big. And my birthday is this week, quite right:)) and several close friends - fishy as they are.

thanks for the tassels - i'll post them as the days come up:)

any participation from your good self would be appreciated:))
and songs from John, naturally.

i may have a story or two of my time as a trickster and jongleur.

the hard part is time zones - but that's half the fun too:)

have you heard of the National Fairground Archive in Sheffield (UK)? Run by Dr Vanessa Toulmin - i used to go there quite a bit, many amazing posters and souvenirs of Magic LAntern shows, Magicians, Pepper's Ghost etc etc:)

Alas, I have not heard of the National Fairground Archive, but if I ever find myself in Britain I will surely visit, for it sounds awesome.

My father is Cornish also!

Re: cornish

[worldof-wonders.livejournal.com]

I have been there! Though alas, not recently. I have a large family there. In the south west of Cornwall. Do you know any Cornish then? I am patriotic.

LOL!

[wytchcroft.livejournal.com]

i think maybe all families in cornwall are large:) mine spraawls all over the place.

as for speaking it - well, i tend to remember broken bits and pieces, nothing useful - but the accent? oh yes, if i talk to my dad for my than 5 minutes!! and we share a love of scones and pasties naturally:))
