It is going to be intense, relentless, sweaty and fun.

Suitable for all fun-loving people, including first-timers: we demonstrate, practice and call dances to suit the crowd.

At half time we will acknowledge the Bard with a Recitals Competition and an Immortal Memory toast. The ticket price includes the offer of a dram to join the toast** (it doesn’t have to be whisky) and a cranachan-inspired dessert slice.

If you are in performing mood, brush up on your party piece and bring it along. If you want to be sure of the opportunity to compete, get in touch beforehand. There is a £100 prize for the best performance.
