Subject: Old Fashioned Night Out,
31st March 2012
The Frittenden Old Fashioned Night Out will
again take place this year - and the date is the 31st March 2012.
This follows a
tremendous evening of old-fashioned dancing, songs and party games last
year. The formula for 2012 is largely unchanged: the evening will have
the same mixture of entertainments as last time, with the multi-talented Rosie
Davis calling to music provided by the Horsmonden Traditional Music Class and
friends, and songs from a variety of invited guests.
The only real difference is that this time we're
holding it in the Bell & Jorrocks function room, which we think will be
cosier?
As last year, formal
attire is encouraged (but optional).
Earlier in the day we'll
have the usual Frittenden-style traditional, old fashioned and entertaining
session in the bar, followed by a mixed session and concert on the theme of
Sea, Ships and Sailors with weekend guests, who include Frittenden regulars
Andy Turner, Annie Dearman and Steve Harrison, and sea-song specialist Chris
Roche. Rosie has kindly promised to chip in with a Sailor's Hornpipe!
In the late morning and
early we'll also have a workshop in which Rosie will teach some of the old
fashioned dances she'll be calling in the evening.
We'll post more details
and a timetable as they become available.
