The Knees Up Cecil Sharp ceilidhs provide interesting and energetic evenings of folk dancing. They present a mixture of established and up-and-coming bands mostly playing in the English ceilidh style. A favourite is The Committee Band which was founded to play for these dances. We aim to cater for both experienced dancers and for newcomers; a caller explains each dance and dancers walk it through beforehand.
Knees Ups take place monthly on Friday evenings (normally the third Friday of the month). The programme gives details of all the forthcoming ceilidhs.
Each dance begins at 8pm and admission is £8.00 per person (£6.00 concessions). The venue is:
Cecil Sharp House,
2 Regents Park Road,
London,
NW1 7AY
my Cecil Sharp House page describes how to get there. There is a licensed bar serving Greene King real ales. Food is not available (sorry), but there are plenty of eating places 3 minutes' walk away in Parkway, and elsewhere in Camden Town.
By popular demand, dances are now always in the Kennedy Hall -- the main upstairs hall.
