History
Rage Theatrics
began when Jason Tipsword (yes, that's his real name) and
several friends decided to begin performing combat-focused shows
at Renaissance Festivals under the title "Shattock Schoole of Defence."
For over eight years Shattock has performed
Ren Faires from coast to coast, although
mostly throughout
the Midwest.
As new members
joined Shattock and the range
of opportunities continued to
grow, it became
apparent that "Shattock" did not embrace all of
the areas in which the group was active. Therefore, in
February of 2006 Rage Theatrics was born as a registered
Limited Liability Corporation.
Directory
Rage Theatrics is composed of three divisions.

Presents

to producing feature-length performances, the inaugural show

Shattock
Schoole of Defence
Shattock is a mixed group of Renaissance-themed comedians,
swordfighters, brawlers and malcontents. Shattock shows
combine comedy, combat and chaos into a fast-paced whole with
something for everybody. In addition to Renaissance Faires,
Shattock
has been seen at city festivals, library presentations, and
community events.
