That brings me back to a perennial plea. Festival organisers, Please,please,please give plenty of information in your programme so that we don't waste our time going to 'Childe Ballads' when we wanted 'children's songs' or 'NW clog' and finding Morris when we wanted stepping. With so much going on it wastes our time and can spoil an event for the majority. I remember an occasion at Bromyard when one woman was almost in tears because she didn't understand the caller - what could the caller do, the room was full of experienced dancers so although she slowed down and explained carefully she was still calling hard dances.
As for the fringe I suppose it's up to people to fit in with what's happening.
