Boss Morris

Boss Morris All-female prog morris side from Stroud, Gloucestershire. Boss Morris formed in September 2015, springing out of the five valleys of Stroud in Gloucestershire.

An all girls side, we met through our day jobs as artists & crafters. We dance mostly Cotswold Morris but our repertoire includes a local broom dance & a 16th Century fighting dance! Our striking attire dazzles the crowds & sheds a new light on the wonderful world of Morris.

Refugee Week Fundraiser @ Hill House 🌳

What an absolute treat to be sharing the glorious day ☀️ at the charming Hill House Stroud with folk dancers and musicians from Ukraine 🇺🇦, Palestine 🇵🇸 and Malaysia 🇲🇾 few weeks back. The strumming of an Oud and impressive display of talents by young Ukrainians from brought joy to the event 🌈

Massive thank you to for having us at your fundraiser in conjunction with Refugee Week UK. We were very delighted to be a part of the event filled with colourful folk art and scrumptious feast. So much good vibes that we blew kisses to the cottage when dancing Shepherd’s Hey with the guests that day 😘

Our opening dance was joined by a blackbird in a giant horse chestnut tree singing along to “Golden Blackbird Jig” 🐦‍⬛ . ‘Twas a magical duet 🥹 ✨
