One does not simply walk into Mordor... without a change of costume!
Join Samuel Peaches and his adventuresome band of travelling thespians as they courageously attempt to enact J.R.R. Tolkien's Fellowship Of The Ring in under an hour! Help the Peripatetic Players run from ringwraiths, scintillatingly swordfight, and secretly scarf second breakfasts in this ridiculous romp around Middle Earth at a park near you. This year, the Players fit their entire production into several suitcases -- even the smallest bag can change the course of this play! Bring a blanket and the whole family and enjoy the adventure as it unfolds all around you.
Shows are free and appropriate for audiences of all ages! Donations gratefully accepted.
