Arsene of Paris is back with the funniest magic show you've ever seen.

The CRAIC Show is my personal favorite, full of Renaissance Rock and Roll and heart thumping tunes.
Ded Bob is the ghostly host with the most, bring deadpan comedy to RenFest.
Kamikaze Fireflies are part comedy, part circus, and part daredevilry. The duo competed on America's Got Talent, and they have four Guinness World Records to impress you with.
The Knights of Noble Cause bring the chivalry and pageantry of live Jousting to the Festival. Practice your loud cheering and booing!
London Broil features Matt, AJ, and Elan, who entertain themselves and you with feats of dexterity including knives, fire, and clubs.
The Washing Well Wenches offer a hilarious show full of good clean interactive fun for all ages.
The Witch Trial flips the script and takes a comedic stab on horrible history with famed tragedian Ned Alleyn.
