We were invited to dance at the Folk Festival (one of three this year alongside Gower Folk Festival & Evesham). Apart from ourselves, Isca and Mendip Morris were also there on a very hot Saturday. I think we did well, entertaining the crowds and consuming some of the ales at the CAMRA Bar, where Jemima Pitchfork was particularly good quality. Alongside ourselves there were dancers from Holland, Flanders [special mention of these as they performed a Longsword Dance just like North Skelton which we used to do a longtime back] Hungary and Welsh dancers from Pen y Fai. All in all a good day out. Words and some pics by Paul. Andrea took quite a few!

What significance did the participation of dancers from Holland, Flanders, Hungary, and Wales have for the event where Jemima Pitchfork was recognized for her quality, and how does it reflect the cultural exchange between different dance traditions? Leave a Reply. |
