Dance off, priced out

December 12, 2013

I read “Morris miners” with concern (Campus round-up, 28 November). There may be a number of reasons why morris dancing is considered unfashionable and perhaps is dying out. Practices and performances often take place at public houses, which themselves are suffering a decline in numbers. The current price of a round of drinks may mean that morris dancing is no longer an inexpensive hobby that all folk can afford.
