UPDATED NEWS……..
With a succesful trip to Glastonbury on 20th August (see below), Chalice look to this coming Thursday 27th August when we return to our spiritual home, with a spectacular season finale atThe Old Kings Head, Worle – our lastThursday dance out of the season. This year, we’re delighted to have the excellent Wild Moon Morris joining us who dance a very exuberant border morris style, so a bit of variety in the dancing!! The show begins at 8pm and finishes….. eventually! There will be two more chances to see Somerset’s finest in Burnham on Sea on 30th August and again on 6th September. See programme page for more information.
Chalice thoroughly enjoyed the Day of Dance with Lyme Morris on Saturday 11th July, with remarks ranging from….“You were the side of day”….”Cotswold danced as it should be”….. comments the team should be proud of. A photographic diary of the day is now visible if you follow the link in the menu on the right.
