Howdy,
I'm prepairing new acts for next summers ren fairs. I need an audience participation game. Know any good ones? I'm thinking one where people have to toss around a plague rat. |

Just some food for thought- There is a pretty well- known ren faire performer who does something like that already.

Emrys Fleet, the Rat Catcher. He does a stage show all about clubbing rats, and also does a big involved street bit about "rat pucking". Very funny stuff.
Cheers, Mike |

Rat pucking is a huge ren fair thing. It's not just Emyrs Fleet. I am a huge fan of Emrys Fleet, but when I met my fiancé she already had a rat pucking stick and a rat, yt she had never heard of him(don't worry, I introduced her as soon as possible). I don't think tossing around a plague rat would he a bad idea, but I am not sure what mind of audience participation you are looking for. Do you want them to participate in magic? Or just a fun game to get energy flowing?

Accually "Rat Pucking" is a copywritten and owned by "Emrys Fleet" It was created many years ago by Danny Lord and Emrys now owns the rights to the game. It is played at many fairs across the country. Most place that play the game either have Emrys there as a performer or the puchase their rats and sticks from him and play the game with his blessing. You can contact him or purchase stuff online from him at http://scarlettrat.com/
Puck away everyone |

Thanks Isaac, for clearing that up. Emrys Fleet is one of my favorite performers, I am glad to know that he owns the rights to such a great game!
