How does living history work?
Living history requires interaction between Time Travel Tours and the time traveler. This means that the
Living Historian must
draw the time traveler into his or her world. While some time travelers may approach
the Living Historian with a question, it is the Living Historian's responsibility to initiate contact.
It can be as simple as asking a question such as "Have you met an Indigenous American before?"
The key to success is making the time traveler feel comfortable
enough to want to time travel and participate in their history by asking questions and making comments.
Time Travel Tours is a hands-on-tour. We encourage time travelers to experience and immerse themselves in events visited.
Torrie is our lead Living Historian, she has an extensive acting history in numerous plays she has acted in directed or produced. Her interest in American history stems from tracing her families 250 years living it. Her great great grand father was from the Monocan Indigenous Nation to the west of where we will be time traveling. In 1989 the Monocan formed a Nation to Nation relationship with the successor State of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Lex is our supporting Living Historian, he has acted in numerous community theater productions. His interest in Indigenous Nation history has led to his studying Indigenous languages including Quechua, Cherokee and Hul'q'umin'um. Both of his parents are from the Mulk Indigenous Nation in northern Europe where they have lived continuously for 10,000 years.
