Description: A site written by Geoff Bibby which explains the transition of Morris Dancing from the traditional dance to the modern carnival equivalent that is seen around the north-west today.
Whenever traditions are under threat there are always those who try to set up situations to help their continuance. This has always been true of Morris Dancing. There have been many peaks and troughs in the popularity of Morris dancing and interested parties will endeavour to revive flagging teams, re-awaken traditions that are dormant or collect and preserve dances from 'dead' sides - so that these dances are able to undergo a renaissance. Whatever form the input takes, this input itself inevitably has an effect on the tradition.
