Fool Around at the Medieval Manor
Monday 19 May
Act the fool at Medieval Manor,
a bawdy extravaganza of the middle ages.
Swap the calm and avuncular control of the Worshipful Master for the capricious and ludicrous King - assisted by his line officers - the minstrel, jester, oaf and wenches…a merry crew who will sweep you up in the fun and foolishness. Let you hair down for once and make mirth at the Manor! As ‘guests’ of the King, you’re served a six course banquet starting with warm loaves of bread, pepper cheese trenchers and faux dragon soup. Mixed shellfish, beef ribs and salad precede the final course, roasted herbed chicken with steamed vegetables. But there’s a catch. Don’t expect attentive waitresses – think Durgin Park. Don’t expect starched tablecloths – think bare pine. Don’t expect silverware – not even plastic knife fork and spoon.
There are plenty of napkins though. Tuck in!
Monday 19 May

20 June 2008
Feast of St John the Baptist
This is our third annual Solstice event: previous events have completely sold out.
Our banquet has some affinity to a Table Lodge, except that it’s open to all,
and it will be held this year at the most exclusive meeting rooms in Quincy:
The Neighborhood Club.
