About The Show
Medieval Characteristics by Julian Mesri

Featuring Austin Tidwell as Pox Ian Quinlan as Scratch, MEDIEVAL CHARACTERISTICS tells the story of everday roommates Scratch the Jester and Pox the Executioner. Drinking beers, baking muffins, complaining about work. Only that their jobs consist of humiliating themselves around the gentry and cutting off heads, respectively. Everything changes when they decide to switch jobs, only for a day. In this poignant and dark comedy the consequences of humor and honor, discipline and punishment are challenged and put to the test with the help of one of the quirkiest odd couples you'll ever meet.

Join us for an intimate reading of this show and catch a glimpse of this exciting new work in progress!

"Pox - am I gonna kill people?"
"Yeah, but I'm gonna make them laugh!"
