SCOTS AT LARGE
Laird Fergus MacDirk
Laird Fergus MacDirk hails from the braw an' bonnie land of lochs and sporrans. He doesnae care much for the Bard, excepting, of course, the Scottish play.
Graeme MacTarge
Graeme MacTarge was found as a wee bairn in a thistle field. He loves his thistle, and takes it everywhere with him. He aspires to be the great Bard.
Meet the Lads
They’re kilted, they’re Sco’ish, they’re utterly ridiculous. The year is 1518, and they’ve left the lochs behind tae visit merry olde England.
Can braw Fergus teach young Graeme tae be a true Scottish lad, or will young Graeme fall into every harebrained scheme Fergus cooks up?
Will Graeme ever realize his dreams of being a Bard as great as the Shakes himself?
​
Will Graeme come out of this a true Scot? Or even alive?

Chris
​
A Renaissance man in the truest sense, Chris has spent over 20 years performing in Renaissance Festival settings. With the training to build the house that will be later brought down, then excavate the remains for historical knowledge, Chris brings his varied experiences to bear on creating and playing characters of many different types, backgrounds, and nationalities. A master of dialects, trained fencer and marksman, martial artist, horseman, and all around spiffy dresser, Chris also has a tendency to speak about Chris in the third person.
Chris graduated from the University of Minnesota (where he captained the fencing team) with degrees in archaeology and anthropology, and then pursued graduate studies in archaeology at the University at Buffalo.

KT
A Renaissance painting, except for unable to sit still for any period of time, KT began cultivating theatrical skills on the family farm, while singing and performing for audiences of dairy cows. (It was said these performances were very moo-ving). After years in various theatre venues, KT decided it was time to take on the biggest challenge of all: performing in the land of heatstroke and outdoor privies.
After debuting in 2017, KT hasn't looked back. With a skillset including: music, singing, writing, martial arts, amateur juggling, improv, and dirt, what other life could be a better fit?
Favourite pastimes include:
bugging Chris
bothering Chris
Making lists
KT Magnolia earned a B.A. in Theatre and music minor from the University of MN, Duluth.
