You would think that one of of the challenges of jumping from 1750 to 2023 would be dress. How do you just appear in 2023 wearing clothes from 1750? In most places this would be a problem. In Williamsburg it is not. When you see an old man and an adorable Labradoodle sitting on the bench in Merchant Square in 2023, dressed in 1750 clothes, people don’t think twice. People think Richard is a character interpreter. And he’s very good at it. He talks like somebody from 1750. He looks like somebody from 1750 and he IS somebody from 1750.
I have been trying to talk to him about going back into 1750 dress like someone from 2023, but he won’t budge. Pure lack of imagination. He is so straight…..

Very smart of Richard.
Duchess are you saying that when people mistake Richard as being a Williamsburg actor he just rolls with it?
WOW! J Peterman rides again, but not before your retrieve his horse Duchess!
