Dance outs 2024
Our public dance outs are listed below:
2024
is Blackadder’s 40th Anniversary year!
Our name came from when the side were watching ‘Blackadder’ on TV after a practice in 1984. It was the episode during which Rowan Atkinson mutters, “Oh no not the Morris dancers”. It was in that moment that a founding member suggested ‘Black Adder’ as our team’s name and it stuck from then on.
Hope to see you (👀) at some of our 40th anniversary year dance outs. Please watch this space and our Facebook page for our dance out updates.
