Phoenix Swords members mix our skills into stage acts. These 20-minute "slice-of-life" skits are well received by children and adults alike. They can be modified to play for an audience primarily of 5-year olds or the quotient can be shifted for a college performance and other grown-up venues. They are humorous bits containing puppets, props and in most cases-swordplay!
Some Examples:
- Don Quixote: Hapless audience members beware! Cervantes would never survive our rendition.
- Sampson and Delilah: who knew that Jersey Girls were Philistines?
- Saint George and the Dragon: the dragon is certainly the least of the King's troubles in this fractured fairy tale (puppets included)
-
Peter and the Wolf: er Sheep Story we mean, well you'll just have to see it - Nasrudin: In this adapted Sufi Tale, sometimes it just makes you sit and think...(actors, comedy)
- Drinks-a-Lot: Bawdy bit of Arthuriana, older audiences, heavy swordplay.
- Historical Deathmatch: Combination Celebrity Deathmatch, Monday night football and History channel. Cheer for your favorites.-By special request only
- And more in development!
