Come be magically, musically transported back to 16th century England.

Tickets are $36 per person, which includes the viewing of an original student-penned drama, a concert of Renaissance madrigals, and orchestral music. Be amazed by our ornate, historic costumes, a flurry of acrobatics and swordplay, the sights and sounds of piously wandering monks, and a heavenly balcony choir. Try to tease our stoic yeomen and be cajoled by our flower and candy sellers. Have your fortune told by a soothsayer. All good fun, but . . . ah, the sumptuous feast! Tempt your palate with wild rice soup, a cheese plate and hearty bread, followed by a fresh salad. But, watch out for conniving beggars! You will toast the Queen's health with warm wassail and dine upon suckling pig, orange glazed chicken, roast beef, parsley potatoes, green beans almandine, stuffing, and fresh fruit. Finish the meal with a dessert and coffee, all served by wenches and pages that will encourage you to eat to your heart's desiring!

You may want to enhance the experience by attending in costume. Be sure to bring along your singing voice as the Queen demands her audiences sing for their supper. The stocks or the sword’s sting might greet the disobedient.

Tickets may be purchased online at www.horlickchoirs.org or you may print off the order form and mail it with payment to
