May Miscellany: Skelton Festival and some Badders
Nosher mills about Diss on a grey, drizzly Saturday morning and spots part of the Skelton Festival (warning: bizarrely constructed and slow site) taking place in the market square. John Skelton, 1460-1529, was a tutor to Henry VIII before becoming the Rector of Diss around 1503. Here the Norwich Early Dance Group perform original dances from the period, accompanied with suitable music and interspersed with readings from the work of John Skelton.
