Work history

Fry was the entertainment director of the Bristol Renaissance Faire from 1989 until 2008.[1] He also filled several other roles such as teacher, designer, technician, Fight Cast director and performer.[2][3][4][5][6]

As entertainment director, Fry was a key player in the success of the Bristol Renaissance Faire.[7] His approach to street theatre helped to make the Bristol Faire an interactive Renaissance Faire.[8] In 1989, Fry started BAPA, the Bristol Academy for the Performing Arts, where young performers learned how to speak Olde English, fight with swords, interact with guests and develop improvisational skills. Fry brought in teachers from Chicago's Second City and The Players Workshop. He oversaw most of the acts at the Bristol Faire and directed all of the faire's scenario shows, much of the street theatre, and all new performers coming into BAPA.

Fry founded the Bristol Academy for the Performing Arts (BAPA),[9] which held classes in movement, character development, street, commedia dell'arte, and improvisation.[10]

gollark: If you just use a pulse per second output from a GPS receiver for generic whatever it's fine. If you want to actually find your position then it would be bad.
