Hopefully no one who wasn't historically...? Well, we'll try, but if my friend actually comes through with his promise of a guillotine, chances are everyone and their invisible cousin is going to be guillotined at least once. Unless they're too scared to put their necks under it, of course.
Well, bring some, and do send some ahead of time so I have a general idea of what you're going to say; though feel free to bring things you haven't mentioned.
Yes, mostly Convention-oriented. And I have no problem with non-violent speeches - I was considering having the whole Louvet-Robespierre thing, but that would be long and I have no translation for it, alas. And if you could find/send some translations of anything else, I'd be more than happy to include it. This is originally not supposed to be a reenactment in the strict sense, but rather people standing around reading all sorts of speeches. Alas, we've gotten rather close to the time and we still have very few speeches...! >_< (I've always wanted to find the speech that has Robespierre's "No one likes armed missionaries" line, but I don't know which one that is. Sigh.) So, yes, it's a "anything you can find/send/etc" situation over here right now...
Oh, no, we haven't found any cockades. I just imagined we'd make some if necessary...why? Do you have/know where to find?
