Interested in history? Or do you like to play? Be a part of the Virginia Renaissance Faire
Woodbridge based Out of the Woodwork Players put on the Virginia Renaissance Faire and other events every year in order to educate the community in English Renaissance history, arts, and society. Focusing on History as a combination of every aspect of life in society, the Woodwork Players guide village guests through customs and culture, art and music, the mundane aspects of everyday life (food, clothing, an honest days wage) and the interrelationship of church, military and sovereign. By keeping the subject matter interesting, creating individual characters and relating the past to their individual lives today, guests experience the magic of touching another time. The result has been a lasting appreciation for where we as a people have come from and how we got here. The added benefit is that once a guest experiences the magic of this educational entertainment process, they can continue to apply it to other periods of history.
