Mark Sellin. He was there at the Faire when I first
went there and "worked". We spent any years there accosting
visitors as a team (Nate and Newt Lymhaker,twins) with various lame schemes
on the street.. We wrote and directed several shows out there. He was
the tall one who could always make Elizabethan entertaining. In the 2
guys act he was the tall one who actually could sing and play a musical
instrument. In the Ulysses project he is the voice of Ulysses and composed
the music, including the very hummable theme song. Without him, none of
the above would have happened.
Not that he is responsible or legally liable in any meaningful sort of
way, I mean.
Currently Mark is working on his own website, has a wife and three pretty
darn adorable kids and he is still the tall one.

Chris Gauntt. Mr. Gauntt, who has received training
on more land masses than most people could even name, {which is more a
reflection on the state of geographical education in this country rather
than Mr. Gauntt NEEDING so much training} has long delighted audiences
with his boundless energy and spontaneous humor. He also impresses his
co-performers with his excellent listening, evaluating and critical skills
which make any project he is involved with a genuine please to work on.
He really didn't write this, by the way.
When not playing the role of Monotestes, the long-suffering crew member
of Ulysses, or Demicrannial, the supervisor of the Gate of Troy, Chris
can be found writing, directing in the LA area.
He also grapples simultaneously with the transient, electronic nature
of knowledge and the persistent, human nature of bureaucracy.

Kirsten Ragsdale. Kirsten's stylization of Ovaria,
a hitherto undocumented member of Ulysses' crew, has been compared by
some to an early Mary Tyler Moore. She is also one sister among six siblings
so she truly knows what it is like to "share" on a family vacation,
an experience one can easily detect in her performance in "The Big
Horsey Ride".
When not performing out at various Renaissance Faires Kirsten is gainfully
employed packaging culture to those presumably eager to suck it up.
She also has the saviour faire to be propelled airborne on Sunset
Boulevard by a BMW in the afternoon and still make her dinner appointment
that same evening

Alexis Schneider. A weaver of words and fabric,
Alexis has long been a singer of note at the Renaissance Faire with the
legendary madrigal group "Good Company".
In the role of two gods, Athena and Hera, in "The Big Horsey Ride",
Alexis's calm voice of authority would not make one think she also performs
with the group "Stink Eye" but she does.
When not so occupied Alexis can be found creating and producing a VERY
fashionable line of women's apparel or hawking same at various crafts
faires throughout the Pacific Time Zone.
