Details and registration for our Morris Workshop on March 15th, 2008 Morris dancers have
celebrated the seasons for hundreds of years in England with music dance,
songs and plays. Decked out in ribbons and bells they performed athletic
dances with handkerchiefs and sticks to encourage good fortune and fertility
for the coming season. The Bridgetown Morris
Men keep this age-old tradition alive in Portland. Our shows are an
energetic mix of traditional dances, music, songs and plays. Keep an eye out for us, you'll
see us dancing around Portland at various events throughout the year. We can be bought! We'll
perform at weddings, picnics,
and parties. We can be joined! All you need is a sense of humor and a little rhythm. If you'd like to watch us,
hire us or become one of us,
contact any of the following by email or phone, directly:
"Who would go to a Morris
dancing class if the only hope
were that it would lead to greater
expertise in Morris dancing?"

(1968), p. 77
