William Morris Dancing

Actually working on this unless someone steals the idea (which is fine because then I'm saved the trouble but please invite me along)

Lots of Arts & Crafts type designed materials, ties, shirts etc. purchased from say Liberty in London placed on the floor in a suitable room or setting for a lone, probably male dancer, to dance upon furiously, and possibly with muddy boots, most likely in a town like Lewes, East Sussex, 'U'K.

    I made the connection between Morris and Morris Dancing long ago, after having seen a cartoon somewhere (may have been private eye) satirising a Left Wing May Day festival in London, back in the 80' or 90's. It listed William Morris Dancing as amongst the entertainment to be expected.

    Here is the link to my paper anyway, which I presented at the Midlands branch of the William Morris Society, with musical accompaniments.

    BTW did you ever do it?
