Come along and learn Cotswold Morris in September!

Shakespeare Morris of Stratford-upon-Avon are hosting a 3-week FREE workshop open to anyone looking to learn to dance or play for Cotswold Morris dancing.

You will be learning dances from the local village of Bidford-on-Avon, which were revived in 1886 by D’Arcy Ferris (1855 - 1929), a pageants organiser from Bath. The Bidford dances turn 140 years old in 2026 and so why not come along and be apart of the history!

Comfortable clothing and shoes are advised and we will provide everything you need, just bring yourself and have a go on Monday 14/21/28th September, 8-10pm at The Rosebird Community Hall, Shipston Road, CV37 8LU.

Thank you to everyone who came out to watch us on the Bancroft Gardens last night.

Despite low numbers we had an enjoyable time- our Bagman and Fool danced a double jig, Shepherds Hey from Headington, albeit two slightly different versions!
