William Morris, or Big Willy to his Friends
One of our members does not conform in terms of kit or gender (ambiguous, androgynous and even ambidextrous). He is our fool, Big Willy (short for William Morris). He livens up the dances by providing humours distractions, mirth and general frivolity. Big Willy is sometimes accompanied by his friend and apprentice, Little Dick. Big Willy takes a rest from the Molly dancing in the winter and is replaced by Betsy who keeps the punters guessing as to his gender but all is sometimes revealed (or not) in the spectacular solo broom dance.
Please contact us if you would like to book us for an event or are interested in joining.
