For the 34 years Medieval Times has been in business the rulers in its kingdoms of battling knights have been men. But the show, which draws an estimated 2.5 million customers each year, is replacing all of its kings with queens. @medieval_times’s peculiar brand of dinner theater — a sort of G-rated “Game of Thrones” — is taking on an unlikely resonance amid the national jousting over gender equality provoked by the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements. The new production, with a woman wearing the crown, had its debut in Dallas last fall, and by year’s end, a queen will reign in all 9 of the castles in North America. @allisonvsmith photographed Monet Lerner playing Queen Doña Maria Isabella in Dallas last week. “The fact that a woman is sitting on the throne in our show at the same time the gender equality movement hit is a coincidence,” Leigh Cordner, a director of the show who started rewriting the script over a year ago, told @ニューヨーク・タイムズ, adding that he was simply responding to audience members who kept asking why women played nothing but princesses. Most guests in the lobby of the Dallas castle said they had no inkling — or didn’t care — that the show had changed. But when a reporter mentioned that Medieval Times is thinking of tinkering with the menu, there was more concern. “Just do not change the food,” one guest lamented, “Do not take my corn away. I love that corn.” Follow the link in the profile to read more. ? ?
