"Trouble at the Faire"

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2533716/fan_mail/new] At a Renaissance Faire, everyone wears a costume… but one of them is hiding a crime. When the gate money disappears at a bustling Renaissance Faire, Norwood and Cross are called in to investigate — paid, unfortunately, in poultry. The only clue? A glimpse of a knight’s helmet just before the attendant was knocked unconscious. Between jousting egos, dented armor, jealous girlfriends, and a dragon puppet with anger issues, Nicole Norwood and Jason Cross must figure out which knight isn’t playing by the rules. With sharp banter, medieval mischief, and a mystery worthy of the royal court, Trouble at the Faire proves that even in the age of knights and queens, crime is still very modern. A robbery, three knights, and one very suspicious flash of silver.  Credits: * Created, written, and produced by: Jody Lebel    vojodylebel@gmail.com          * Directed by: Nick Omana -   nick@nickomana.com * Project Manager and Editor: Mark Winkworth - mjwinkusa@gmail.com * Recorded at: Munjoy Studio – Mark Winkworth * Foley/Sound Engineer: Tyler Walker – tyler.walker56@gmail.com VOICEOVER CAST:  Narrator: Mike Coward   stocos28@gmail.com [stocos28@gmail.com,] Jason: Max Cutler   maxbcutler@gmail.com [maxbcutler@gmail.com]  Nicole: Rachel Vega  rachel@rachelvegavo.com Murray: Nick Omana   nick@nickomana.com [nick@nickomana.com] Red and Black Knight: Ed Waldorph ed@ed-vo.com [ed@ed-vo.com] Steve:  Mark Winkworth  mjwinkusa@gmail.com Queen: Amber Ba'th   iamamberbath@gmail.com Girlfriend: Peggy Lee   say.plees@frontier.com, Sponsor: Jeanine Orci  jeanineorci@gmail.com   Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2533716/support]       "AVA's 2026 Platinum Award Winner"
