Dead Horse Morris Men & Broomdasher Ladies hail from the coastal town of Whitstable in Kent. We have been dancing for over 38 years, entertaining audiences across Kent and beyond. The men’s side perform a regional style in Kentish Morris whilst the ladies dance in the Border style. We dance around our home town of Whitstable and the area of the North Kent Coast that extends from Thanet in the East to Faversham in the West. Our season starts on St.George’s Day (23rd April) and finishes in October with a further outing on Boxing Day. In addition to the traditional dance, we are renowned for playing traditional music, singing traditional songs and drinking traditional ale!
Intro to Border Morris Dancing Workshop
Ever wanted to try Morris dancing? Join the Dead Horse Morris side from Whitstable to try a regional style of this traditional dance - with hobnail boots and sticks lean more towards the "Border" style and "Molly Dancing" than the better known bells-and-hankies Cotswold dances. Buy tickets
