During this time period we did historical presentations for the local schools in costume and brought items to discuss such as armor, weapons, clothing, and basic tools. We did presentations on Renaissance Europe and World War I. We explained the politics of the time and how that lead to various situations.
We also did a great deal of what we referred to as “Meet and Greet” work where we were in costume and would simply chat with guests and allow them to take pictures of themselves with us. This was also the time period where we did the movie openings in Las Vegas. There were two occasions where we had less than two weeks to be ready and had to develop brand new costumes for all three of us. This was the situation for the Patriot and Gladiator.
