GUEST,Derek Schofield	Bacup Nuters and Racism (154* d)	RE: Bacup Nuters and Racism	25 Apr 14
I have seen the Chiarini family mentioned before for their stage cocoa-nut dance. The press report quoted is very interesting because it talks about people imitating them.... Last Saturday, the Nutters danced on the stage of the Royal Court Theatre in Bacup - a (presumably) Victorian building, past its best, now being renovated by volunteers.... oh to have a list of all the acts that performed on that stage over the years.... The fact remains, that the Nutters: a. don't actually use coconuts. b. perform 5 garland dances - clearly derived from 5 figures of the quadrille. c. conform to a street performance format that is clearly linked to the region's morris dance tradition.
