Keynsham Mummers Play 2019

In 1977, with the formation of Keynsham and District Arts Society, an attempt was made to produce the play, but there was never a full attendance at rehearsals and the idea was abandoned. Coincidentally, in December 1976, just about the same time as the Keynsham and District Arts Society were trying to revive the play, a group of Bristol Morris Men had just performed it at a University of Bristol folk dance! Following a plea for help broadcast on Radio Bristol the morris men contacted Bunty Dunford enquiring as to whether they could help. Jumping at the chance of it being revived Bunty suggested that the Bristol Morris Men take on the challenge. With a few changes in the cast they have performed it ever since. More Info below.
