Folkplay -- The Stag Hunt -- For All Ages
Friday February 21, 2025 11:30am - 1:00pm EST
Conference Room H (Children's)
Briefly learn about Folkplays / Ritual Theater / Processionals of the British Isles. View photos of Stag ceremonies from around the world. Then participate in Hunting the Stag! This is a genuinely older folklore tradition which has versions in many different cultures. Mighty Hunters chase Herne the Stag / the Bucca and slay him -- don't be sad, he is reincarnated to run again. Then participants eat Stag-shaped gingerbread cookies. Differently-abled people can drum, chant, and make noise. This tradition is intended for all ages. Little kids will be given priority in hunting the Stag.
