I know no more about it than this, but looks interesting: PROGRAMME: Get Your Clogs On / Come Clog Dancing: December 2010: BBC4 documentary featuring: LAURA CONNOLLY: http://lauraconnolly.co.uk/ Champion Clog Dancer and member of the award winning Demon Barber Roadshow (Best Live Act BBC Folk Awards) CHARLES HAZELWOOD: http://www.charleshazlewood.com/ Conductor and Musician BBC4 Saturday 11th December 2010: 7:00pm to 8:00pm BBC4 Sunday 12th December 2010: 11:35pm to 12:35am BBC4 Thursday 16th December 2010: 7:30pm to 8:30pm In the last decades of the 19th century there was a dance, now rarely seen, that resounded through the collieries and pit villages of the north east of England \u2013 the clog dance. For conductor and musician CHARLES HAZELWOOD, it has become an obsession and he plans to put it back on the map by staging a mass flashmob clog dance. Helped by a team of local enthusiasts led by clog dancer LAURA CONNOLLY, Charles recruits and trains 140 men and women from across the north east to ambush the public with a six-minute performance in Newcastle. |
