​

Menagerie is comprised of Jon and Lisa Butts. 

Jon plays the guitar and Lisa plays both the hammered dulcimer and the recorder.

She also has a beautiful singing voice!

 

They got their start in 1989 (along with a friend) as a Recorder trio, known as the Royal Pipers.

As a trio, they performed at Faires in Texas, Ohio, Indiana, Tennessee, and Alabama.

​

 In 1993, the trio joined another group and Menagerie was formed.  Five years later, Menagerie became the duo known today.  

 

Menagerie's performances occur throughout the day. They can be found beside the

Renaissance Faire Information Booth

located opposite the Fountain from the

Royal Pavilion.
