Mark Your Calendars for October 19th!
Tales speak of a dock that creaks, and a lake where the waves are dead. Smell of rot abound and whispering sounds that get inside your head.
Caer Darrow, the birth of death, and place where it all began. Many have blundered and been ripped asunder, the intelligent ones have ran.
Yet on one night, years in the making, the tone of terror does shift; for a celebration that will sweep the nation, from a certain group, a gift.
We give to you, our audience, a night of mirth and fun, to stare down fears with courage and joy until the eve is done.
For half a decade the Tirisfal Theatre has brought you laughter and tears, so come celebrate that with us in a place to face your fears.
A few years ago some may recall that we ended the Big Bash, our yearly anniversary celebration where we would put on a huge party to commemorate another year of performing for you, our beloved audience! However, we’ve grown nostalgic for the event. It really was one of our favorite things to do, taxing as it may have been on resources and my personal finances! This year, we’re returning to Caer Darrow to put on a spooktacular Hallow’s End themed party to commemorate FIVE YEARS of performing for the denizens of Wyrmrest Accord and beyond!
This evening will be jam packed with tons of events to do, music streaming by a DJ, tons of prizes just for showing up and signing our guest list, and accompanied by the premiere of a brand new play from us, which will be revealed soon!
The event begins on Friday, October 19th at 5:45 PM server at the Isle of Caer Darrow in the plaguelands, and will draw to a close around 11:00 PM server or so! Times are still not entirely concrete, but this post will be updated as changes come and reblogged, so please follow us if you want to keep up to date with all the information on this event!
What do we have in store for you so far? Take a look!
Straight from the Crypt, an UN-ALIVE DJ!
6:00 to when the costume contest happens!
What would any self-respecting Hallow’s End party be without music straight from the world beyond? All night long, music will be streamed live for all our guests! It’ll be a mix of spooky themed songs and tracks to wake the dead, and the dance floor will be open all night for people to come and socialize with one another, dance, and meet new friends up until the Costume Parade begins later in the evening!
The Castle of Critter Carnage - Pet Battle Tournament!
6:00 Signups, 6:40 start!
We know it’s just a keep, but let’s pretend for a moment, shall we? Bring forth ye critters for a return to form with an old favorite of ours! The Pet Battle Tournament of the Tirisfal Troupe will see to it that you will be pit against one another in this unique take on a pet battle tournament, where each round will obtain a special set of rules decided on by the roll of a dice! Having a good spread of pet families will be almost required to win this tournament and be crowned the Tirisfal League Champion, and have a chance to face off against our mystery champion!
There are plenty of prizes at stake, including a Landro’s Lichling pet code from the TCG! As we draw closer to the date, more information about the tournament will be revealed, but in the meantime, please do train those pets for the bloodbath to come!
The Dire Docks of Death - Tales from Beyond the Grave!
The commotion of the pet battling and the loud noises of the dance floor a bit too much to endure? Well then head on down to the eerily quiet docks for the night, where the troupe’s storyteller will be weaving tales of dread and the dead all night long! Five stories that tell of the history of the plaguelands, the Scourge war, and others lesser known tales will be told in rotation all night long! So if you find some of the other events to not be your thing, why not pop in for a spell and listen?
The Treasure Demon’s Hoard!
No Set Time - Be On the Lookout!
You won’t know when, you won’t know where! But there’s whispers of a demon who hoards gold on the isle, who might pop in for a nasty surprise when his hiding spot is occupied by meddling partygoers! When the demon appears, follow him fast as he seeks to salvage his treasures from prying eyes! You might find him clumsier than his passion for gold implies, and he might just pelt you with bags upon bags of his loot. This short event will occur only once this evening, but you won’t want to miss it, as over 150,000 in gold will be spilled like blood on the battlefield!
When You’re On The Guest List…
Hourly Raffle + Big Raffle after the performance!
No one can take you higher on OUR guest list! Just by telling us you were here, you will be entered in a chance to win some amazing raffle prizes! These items range from a Vial of the Sands, to toys from the Shadowmourne quest, and even game time! A full list of prizes will be posted at a later date, but as anyone from our events will tell you, we tend to go a little overboard for this, and this year is absolutely no exception.
A full list of prizes will be given in an upcoming post, but for now, know that this year we’ve also included a little incentive for those who come early and stay all throughout. There will be a secondary raffle that is drawn every hour for additional prizes! Best part, you can win more than once and it won’t affect your presence in the final raffle!
The Tirisfal Costume Contest
If you haven’t noticed, this time of year is a pretty big deal! It’s a chance to dress up like something you’re not and really take the world by storm with your creativity! We like that here in the Tirisfal Theatre Troupe, and so as per tradition with the Big Bash, there will also be a costume contest! Starting at 9 PM server, gather at the bridge to Caer Darrow, where everyone will take part in a short parade through the isle and into the keep, where the final events will begin! Wear your most creative costumes, then line up upon the stage and take part in the costume contest, where 10 finalists will be selected by our unbiased judges, and the winner of that 10 will then be voted upon by you, the audience, to see who is best dressed! Hefty gold prizes await creative minds, and unlike our transmog competitions, there are no restrictions to what you can wear to complete your visage! Toys, other types of armor, non-moggable items, it’ll all be about how creative you can be!
Will you arrive as the Dragon Tamer and their trusty steed? Will you don a pumpkin helm, shovels, and overalls to be the pumpkin farmer from beyond? Or will you surprise us with a perfect lookalike of Atos? Let’s see what you’ve got!
More details on this to come in a future post, including rules and prizes! Currently there’s over 200,000 gold in prizes to be given for this, but more prizes are on the way!
It is a play that no one has seen. It is a play that no one has heard. The Tirisfal Theatre has conjured up something frightening this year to perform just for you! To cap off our late evening, the Tirisfal Theatre Troupe will do what we do best, and what we’re celebrating five years of doing; a full feature original play written and directed by Atos Sunhart, and performed by the amazing talents of the Tirisfal Theatre! What sort of play is it? Is it a comedy? A drama? Or could it be something…new? Who is to say…well, besides us, as we do kind of have to rehearse it, but still! You won’t want to miss this presentation to close off a fanastic celebration!
Light of Fright in the Dead of Night!
Probably our most ambitious idea ever, we plan to close the evening off with one of our famed fireworks shows at the center of the fort. This time, however, before we even begin, we will be giving additional fireworks to as many of our audience as possible so they may join us when we call for the grand finale at the end, in the hopes of lighting up the night in a way never done before! Come join us and stay till the end so you may be a part of this beautiful spectacle, and send off the event with a bang!
These events and more await you at Caer Darrow, on Friday, October 19th! The Big Bash is a proud tradition of the Tirisfal Troupe, and we have never been more excited to pick it back up than we are this year! We hope to see you all there, and hopefully in one piece; don’t let the old gods get you, now…
More events and more information to come as we draw nearer to the date! And thank you, Wyrmrest Accord, for five amazing years! Consider this just the beginning, as many more amazing things are yet to come!
