livE BATTLES

Our crewe has the experience necessary to bring you a live battle, safely, and for thousands of viewers. As we have done many times, our ship the Dark Rose invades, while defenders attempt to repel and defeat the fearsome Pirates. We use period correct black powder weapons and live steel swords in our combat. It is a scene that will give you a front row seat to re-living history and make you beleive you're on a movie set. For a preview, click on the Video at the bottom of this page and view our Invasion of Camden Maine. The PoDR was hired by the Camden Windjammer Festival to put on their Pirate Show. Hear our cannon thunder and watch the battle unfold

children DEMONSTRATIONS

For all of our little Pirates, we have not left you out. The Pirates of the Dark Rose prepare their own crewe, made from the children who attend. We train them on cannon, with swords (foam ones of course), and show them how to become one of the crewe. Fun for all ages!
