In Celebration of Morris in America

Book Review by Mike Pearson
Peter Millington

 I am pleased to announce the second in the Master Mummers series of book reviews. Mike Pearson, Professor of Performance Studies at Aberystwyth University reviews:

Border-Crossing: Mumming in Cross-Border and Cross-Community Contexts, edited by Anthony D.Buckley, Críostóir Mac Cárthaigh, Séamas Ó Catháin & Séamus Mac Mathúna

Direct link: http://www.mastermummers.org/articles/Review-Border-Crossing.htm

This is a fascinating and wide-ranging collection of papers on folk drama, presented at a conference held at the University of Ulster, Derry, 2003, under the auspices of the Irish 'Room to Rhyme' project.

No doubt you will be able to buy copies from the book stalls at folk festivals this summer, or from all good booksellers.
