The Avalon Cast
Introducing the Cast of Avalon. The Lady Elaine of Glamorganshire, sister of the beloved King Arthur , welcomes all to the annual celebration of her brother's coronation. But beware! Queen Guinevere must be protected from the evil designs of Morgan la Fey, who seeks to ransom the queen for Arthur's crown.
The Court will hold a Commissioning Ceremony each day of the Faire, awarding titles of honor to those who wish to be recognized. Is it your birthday? Alert a Cast member and walk the Parade as our invited guest. Meet us in the lanes to chat or mayhaps share a meal. And don't be too surprised if a scuffle ensues over who spilled who's ale! All of this and more is presented in the lanes and on the stages of Avalon Faire by this talented troupe, the Cast of Avalon.

Thom Bedlam
Captain Thom Bedlam is landlocked, bored, and bursting with thomfoolery. It's an array of magical mayhem, the sharing of vastly inaccurate knowledge, and gregarious (if ineffective lessons) on piracy. Of all the lying, cheating, unscrupulous scoundrels you'll ever meet, you'll like him the best. He is not so much memorable as he is hilariously traumatizing!
