Last year's appearance by the Albemarle Morris Men was so fun, they're doing it again!

Morris is a term applied, rather loosely, to traditional English folk-dancing that is done as a performance rather than as a social event.  There are many kinds of Morris dancing. The Albemarle Morris Men dance a type of Morris called Cotswold Morris, named for the southwestern region of England from which the dancing comes.  The Albemarle Morris Men use as the basis of their dance style the dances collected in the village of Bledington, Gloucestershire. The costumes they wear are their own individual design but they reflect the tradition of the Morris dance attire. The Albemarle Morris Men have been dancing in and around Charlottesville Virginia since 1978.
