Saturday 30th June 2012
At the invitation of The Royal Shakespeare Company and Stratford Town Council.
- 10.30 to 12.30 dancing throughout the splendid town of Stratford upon Avon. We have 18 dance spots including at least two permanent percussive dance spots for Rapper, step clog and Appalachian.
- 12.30 to 4pm dancing everywhere around Stratford except in close proximity to the RSC.
- Potential coach tours to the 4 Shakespeare historic houses (still under negotiation).
- A separate Rapper tour which dips in and out of the main dance spots. (To be co-ordinated by natasha.woodward [at] live.co.uk (subject: JMO%20Day%20of%20Dance%20Stratford%20-%20from%20The%20Morris%20Ring%20Event%20Page) (Natasha Woodward).)
- A complete guide to all pubs, cafe's and tea shops, all Historic Houses and places of tourism will be available after Easter.
- The RSC is to include our event in the RSC diary/newsletter/blogs as a part of their RSC Shakespeare 2012 Open Stages festival.
The RSC have offered office and secure storage space at their rehearsal studios, close to the RSC main entrance on Waterside Road. This will be open from 9.30am for distribution of latest information.
If your side would like to be part of this major event of 2012 contact bagman [at] themorrisring.org (subject: JMO%20Day%20of%20Dance%20Stratford) (Charlie Corcoran, Bagman of the Morris Ring), a.s.a.p.
Places are limited and allocated between the three JMOs on a % ratio of 55:25:20 which means that there is room for 15 Morris Ring sides.
Note: Teams who are part of the organisation of the day (e.g. Shakespeare MM) and Rapper Sides are not included in this number.
