It's all very well lunging around the place, covered in metal in medieval times... but what happens if a Knight of The Realm needs a website?
Hubspoke Media enter the chat; that's what.

First time fighting in my new armour for @histrionicsevents.bsky.social and phew it's so much more comfortable to scrap in now. #armour #history #stagecombat #historicalcombat
It's been really, really, really hot just recently.
So we thought linen and wool and metal seemed the thing to do. But then, that's what we always do.
Especially over the last 2 weeks for The Royal Armouries Museum, Leeds.
It was sunny all day and there was no Hail, Caesar! Fantastic 4th year in a row delivering our Roman Legionary Tours for Castleford Museum's #RomanFest last month.

1 incredible Dragon Parade, 3 story shows, 5 and a half hours in 4 stone of armour, and hundreds of fabulous people!
What an amazing day at Pontefract Castle yesterday for Dragon Egg Day.
We got some lovely feedback too.
Robert Angus Smith (FRS) the scientist who coined the phrase "Acid Rain", returns from the past to The Royal Society to host the Modeshift National STARS Awards.
Our Prof hosted the national event in London alongside Simon Lightwood MP, before performing an interactive walking tour of the city
It's a game of 2 halves. But which is better, hands or feet?
Our brand new "The History of The Football" debuted at the Freemasons Arms in Covent Garden where the FA was created, for Team Modeshift and the superb MVP superstars of the Association for Commuter Transportation (ACT) from the US.
It's time to get back on the Rainbow Bridge!
This spring travel the bi-frost with Ragnar the Bold and Gloucestershire County Council, as ThinktravelGlos employs Histrionics to deliver 'Hiking with a Viking' across the UK!!
A convention about conventions! How unconventional.
As are our spectacular duelling knights. Clashing longswords and fighting in over 4 stone (55 pounds) of armour.
Let the history entertainment begin!

Histrionics employ professional #actors to perform dramatic, intimate tales of history's most incredible #stories. Here we see productions of Samurai William Adams & Stede Bonnett: the inspiration behind the #tv series 'Our Flag Means Death' & 'Shogun'.
