This weekend, London’s South Bank celebrates one of our great traditions: Morris Dancing. But with an updated image.
There are several events during the weekend, including:
Pop artist David Owen brings a Morris-inspired large-scale installation to Southbank Centre, highlighting his irreverent and humorous re-imaginings of established folk and pop icons and challenging current image of the Morris dancer in English culture. The installation is complemented by a weekend celebrating the best in folk and Morris dance including live music, film and of course dance.
One hundred of the finest morris dancers from across England assemble over two days for one of the largest gatherings of morris dancers in London.
Featuring Hammersmith Morris Men, Mortimer’s Morris (Nottingham), Pecsaetan Morris (Sunday only), Boggart’s Breakfast, Eynsham Morris (Saturday only), Stone Monkey Sword Dancers, Moss Brothers and Gog Magog Molly.
