Following the popularity of our mummers winter tour of the past four years, this year's summer show is based on the same format but with a summer rather than Christmas theme.
Performing a pastoral selection of folk songs, dances and a mummers play whose origins have been traced to Linton-in-Craven, our show features the now familiar Hardcastle’s troupe arriving tired, hot and grumpy to perform somewhat reluctantly for 'the hat'.
Showcasing talents from a breathtaking rapper sword dance to a maypole shambles, with traditional folk anthems and summer spirit – of the alcoholic kind of course – we transport our audience to a bucolic Victorian summer. Find out more.
Venues wishing to play host to this half hour show this summer should contact Andrew Jackson on 01756 752695. Depending on the weather we will be performing outdoors around the county and beyond at suitable venues and events.
