Old World Troubadour Productions A Living history... Recreating the lives and journeys of the troubadours through stories, humor, and song. John DuRant, Sr.

From single-street festivals to The National Theatre in Richmond to The State Theatre in Northern Virginia and also the 6000 member audiences at The Baltimore Pier Six Pavilion. Inside book stores and coffee houses - outside on the sprawling grounds of the Maryland Rennaisance Festival. Strolling or on-stage, Old World Troubadour Productions recreates living history through song as general family

entertainment. From Medieval European to Modern American Folk, accurate costumes, traditional music with unique arrangements, and engaging storytelling styles bring to life what was... Back Then. was the seven year host of the Troubadour Show on Frederick Cable Television, on-stage or strolling with small groups at street fairs, John delights children of all ages with his storytelling and favorite children's songs, done in his own very personal style. Dressed in authentic period-costumes, the Old World Troubadour's presentations are both educational and entertaining! Perennial strolling and stage performers at restaurants, cafes, coffee houses, taverns, street festivals, and about any place people gather for entertainment, Old World Troubadour shows are more than singing and playing - they are entertainment in the true historical troubadour style. Over the past ten years father and son have teamed up to create this unique company. The goals are to entertain, educate, and assist performers in honing their craft. Working at all levels of production, we strive to build a community of performers that will not only assist one another, but help to strengthen the community through direct action through helping food banks, raising funds for charity, and helping those in need around the winter holidays. Services include, but are not limited to training, scheduling, negotiations with venues, recording, and production. Please contact us for further information.
