Sir Gyles Anhill, Junior (a.k.a. The Bard)
Gyles Anhill is the founder and leader of the Midsummer Players, a distinguished performance group in Draconia. They are renowned worldwide for their abilities in theater and music.

Personal history
Gyles lost his parents at a young age and spent most of his childhood traveling with a group of minstrels. At 18, he gained a scholarship to the University of Thoth for music and left the troupe to study music. He gained advanced degrees in both music and theater and formed a troupe of his own. As a playwright, his plays are known for their entertaining qualities while still presenting a lesson to learn from watching. As a composer, his oratorios are world-famous. His troupe plays the leading roles in his oratorios when they are performed and he often travels with a recruited choir and orchestra, though these players are contracted only for one tour. Sometimes, when a king or other leader will ask for a special performance, a local choir and orchestra will be formed by the leader and the Players will simply fill in the leads. Gyles always conducts his works.
Education
Gyles received practical education from his mentor in the troupe he traveled with as a child. He went on to received formal education in theater and music at the University of Thoth, Grand Temple Campus.
