The country dance section of English Miscellany displays both country and Playford dances. Our repertoire consists of dances from many parts of England and our country dances are both traditional and modern. Most of our dances are linked together to form sequences and are choreographed to add interest and variety to our programmes. September to December is the time when we try out new dances for the next season so the following list of dances in our repertoire is at the moment incomplete because we are still working on adding to them!
