the mAy team first appeared in 2015 and shows at the Swiss Garden (May 1st) and Blenheim Palace (August 4th–7th) 2016 and again Countryfile Live! 2017 and 2018 at Blenheim Palace. In 2019 they were at both Blenheim Palace and Castle Howard. In 2021 they returned to Spring Live! and found the Maypole a home at the Chiltern Open Air Museum which resulted in a 3 year partnership of events and workshops. This year there have been a couple of small scale events to keep us going and hopefully some of the big events will return soon. Visit the team’s website – Click here.
Prices for the full team start around £1100 and for smaller events can be as little as £500.
the mAy team is the result of all those years of teaching and training; made up of full time dancers, teachers & musicians with a wealth of knowledge of the living tradition. For some shows they are joined by members of Pump House Clog Morris from Watford.
Typically the mAy team will do a short performance and then invite members of the audience to try their hand with full instruction.
They can put on a longer show adding morris and clog dancing, music and song to create a full package of traditional entertainment. These showcase performances, without interaction, have been the basis of our Covid secure events this year at Spring Live and COAM.
Prices start from around £900
