The Pennsic 38 dance coordinator is Princess Judith de Northumbria
(and Queen by Pennsic, that'll be a first!)
Greetings from Judith, Crown Princess of Drachenwald by the Grace of God!This year I once more have the pleasure of leading activities in honor of the muse of dance, Terpsichore. There shall be a full range of classes scheduled in the Dance Pavilion, ranging from absolute beginner (everyday at 2pm and 3pm) to very advanced (see class book) -- there will be something for everyone who wishes to learn! We will also be offering wide variety of themed night-time revels in the dance pavilion open to everyone, even to those who do not wish to dance at all! This year's Grand Ball (in the barn) shall once more be taking place on Tuesday of War Week. Even if you have never tried dancing before, maybe this should be your year -- come by the Pavilion and give it a whirl!
Come one and all to the English Revel in the Dance Tent, on Saturday the 1st of August at 9:00 in the Evening, at which shall be done divers sorts of Dances that are known in England, to music by Istanpitta. Besides Dancing, we will, as the Bard says, "have a trifling foolish Banquet towards". Many of the Dances will have been taught beforehand by the Master of the Revels, Lord Henry of Maldon.
Sunday, August 2: A ball featuring dances suitable for the beginning dancer. Come one, come all!
Monday August 3: A ball featuring dances from before the year 1603.
Tuesday, August 4: The annual Grand Ball. Wear your finest and come ready to dance all night! (Barn)
Thursday, August 6: Upon the 6th of August, the feast of the Transfiguration, Judith, Queen of Drachenwald, invites all to revel in the dances from the courts of Burgundy, Lancaster and Sforza. Festivities shall begin around the ninth hour, with food and beverage for all.
