Thread Name: Lyr/Tune Add: Helston Hal an Tow
Subject: RE: lyr and tune Helston Hal an Tow
Where is the mummers' play that goes with it? I could only turn up two Christmas ones from Cornwall (Tiddy's book noted in the other thread). The article I mentioned in the other thread (JEFDSS, 1960) has some references to the processional at Helston, but the article doesn't touch folk plays.
