The Pink Monorail Podcast: Manufacturing the Magic Episode 2
In the second installment of this new educational series, Noe & Shelly Valladolid discuss the ancestors of today’s Renaissance fairs. To be specific, some of the primitive “rides” that could be found at these medieval entertainments. In this episode, listeners will learn about:
- Elephants walking across the frozen Thames
- What fairs were like in faraway India
- How an exhibition of two goats led to today’s county fairs
- Why Canada’s Hants County Exhibition, the first major fair in North America, is still in operation today
- What it was like to attend a Frost Fair in the heart of London
Have you visited any county fairs, or classic Dickens fairs this season? I’d like to hear about it in the comments section. As always if you would like to sponsor me
