27 Nov 01 - 12:05 PM (#598517) Subject: Shakespeare Mummers From: alanww MummersWe will be performing again this year with several Mudcatters playing different parts. Salford Priors PlayThis year we are doing the Salford Priors Mummers Play, which is based on the disjointed recollections of Ross Hunt and Jack Basket of Salford Priors. It has been pieced together from the records in the Carpenter Collection, which is part of the Morris Ring of England's National Mummers Archive kept by Ron Shuttleworth. They were taught the play in the 1880s by Ernest Bennett of Hampton and Albert Teal of Salford Priors and had never seen it written down. Programme We would welcome seeing any Mudcatters at our performances, which are around South Warwickshire, North Gloucestershire and East Worcestershire, in a total of 30 pubs between 30 November and 6 January. See Mummers programme for the details. Songs We always finish with one of three traditional songs: Not For Joe, Camptown Races and Old Bob Riddley. My uncle Billy had a ten-foot w*ll** |

Bit too far for me to travel down for the evening, unfortunately, though I'd love to see you all do your play. Maybe another time? Noreen |

I would have been interested to see it. My grandfather, Thomas Barnett, lived next door to Ross Hunt in Salford Priors when he was a boy and performed in that play later in life. |
