A Triumphant Weekend at Jack in the Green
Black Annis made their annual trip to the wonderful Hastings Jack in the Green festival for the Mayday bank holiday weekend. We had triumphant performances all around the town dancing in front of large and enthusiastic crowds. We endured the long but spectacular procession and finished with a raucous performance of Nutting Girl on the festival stage.
Fabulous Day Dancing in Leicester, Old Town Festival
On Saturday 25 April we had a wonderful time dancing at the Leicester Old Town Festival dancing in Jubilee Square, the Jewry Wall Museum Piazza and twice in Leicester Cathedral where we shared a spot with Leicester Morris. The staff were helpful and friendly everywhere and there was so much to see and do with so many interesting displays and activities.
A Great Day Out in Oxford
On Saturday 11 April we had a lovely day dancing along with many other sides in the beautiful city of Oxford as part of the Oxford Folk Fest . The weather was variable but there was enough sun to enjoy the day and it was lovely to have Amy dancing with us in her first dance out with the side.
Dancing in the Phoenix Foyer
On 26 March we enjoyed a splendid evening at our local Phoenix arts centre dancing in the foyer and following it by watching a film “Mothers Pride” which features Morris Dancing.
