Belles and Broomsticks

The Belles are a mixed Cotswold and Border Morris side based in Guernsey in the Channel Islands. "We dance the Morris because we enjoy it. It is enlivening and invigorating and satisfies our human love of dance - we are not primarily concerned with its history and possible meanings. We are part of a brand new 'tradition' and we hope to offer an entertaining and polished display of what we see as Morris Dancing, though it has moved a long way from its roots. We very much hope that our audiences can appreciate and enjoy what we do."

She was born in Cardiff and when she moved to Guernsey aged 7 she couldn’t believe the opportunities that were available on the island. From pantomine to dance festival to Eisteddfod and one act plays there has been plenty to keep her busy. 

She has been fortunate this past year to have gained fantastic experience playing lead roles in productions of High School Musical (EC), Nativity the Musical (GGSFC) and the soon to be released film version of A la Perchoine.
