CARVER (WBSM) — As King Richard’s Faire in Carver prepares for its 45th season – and its second at its new home on the Edaville Railroad grounds – the call is out for anyone who wishes to work in the realm this year.

King Richard’s Faire is seeking strolling villagers to roam around and perform for visitors, as well as stage performers, singers, buskers and more.

Last year, the Faire had its first season at Edaville, and workers were still constructing Carvershire’s various buildings and areas right up until (and even after) opening day.

This year, the Faire is expected to continue adding to its new home and the performers are a big part of that experience.

What You Need to Prepare for King Richard's Faire Auditions

According to a post shared by none other than Queen Anne herself (or, rather, the person who portrays her), anyone seeking to audition must be prepared with the following:

  • A current headshot photo and resume
  • 16 bars (30 seconds) of two contrasting songs: one up-tempo and one ballad, either a cappella, or if you would like to accompany yourself, using the instrument of your choice
  • A one-minute monologue
  • A demonstration of any special skills (musical instruments, dance, magic, juggling, stilt walking, etc.)

You should bring or wear clothing that you are comfortable moving around in.
