FAQ

Queen’s Oak Morris FAQ~

Which one’s Morris?
None of us, love. You’re  making two mistakes here- firstly you’re confusing the man’s name ‘Maurice’ with the English ritual dance tradition ‘Morris’ and secondly, if you look harder, you’ll notice we’re all girls.

QO on the Millenium bridge

Why do morris dancers all carry tankards?
Well I can’t answer for everyone else, but I use mine to drink from.

What are the oranges of Morris dancing?
Oranges? What do you mean, ‘oranges’? Oh, I see, ORIGINS. Oh. Don’t really know- ask that bloke over there. He knows a lot about diesel engines too.

Which end is the kitchen?
The bottom end in Yardley Gobion. (Or the top end in the Woods Hall.)

Can you play ‘Over the Hills and Far Away?’
Yes
Cheerio then.
