Join Georgettes of Oxford for a Georgian picnic and dance display at Broughton Castle in North Oxfordshire, ancestral home to the Fiennes family, as well as a location used to film The Madness of King George, Wolf Hall and Jane Eyre (2011) - https://www.broughtoncastle.com/The Fiennes family have kindly given permission for us to dance on their lawn, weather permitting, or inside the Great Hall if it is inclement. We plan to premiere our Mozart and Ignatius Sancho dances, followed by some simpler Georgian and Regency Country Dances for the public to join in with.
After the display we shall then retire to a shady spot with a view of the castle to picnic, and have the opportunity to have a look around the house. If the weather is not nice, there is a Café where we can purchase some refreshments.
Regency and Georgian attire is welcomed, as are non-costumers. To blend in, those not in costume may wish to wear a long skirt (ladies) or a white shirt and pale trousers (gentlemen).
Please bring a picnic rug, food and drink for your picnic. As we will be dancing on the grass, please make sure you are wearing shoes which is suitable for this.
Time: 2-5pm - Display 2:30-3:30pm - picnic from 3:30pm
Price: £11.00 (entry to house and gardens) or FREE for Georgettes' dancers
