As a Squire of the Morris Ring you get to watch a lot of dancing. Most is of it is of a reasonable standard, but there are very few who ‘get it right’ as a matter of course and most clubs can improve their performances. When putting on a show involving several teams a whole new level of performance comes into play, you really are ‘putting on a show’
With this in mind, I asked Mike Garland to put together some thoughts and observations on the subject. Whether dancing on your own outside a country pub on a Tuesday night to one man and his dog or in front of several hundred people in the middle of a tourist city with 10 other teams, on a day of dance, I hope you find them of use.
