Black Pig Border Morris Dancers and Musicians
Named after the ship of the infamous Captain Pugwash, Black Pig Border was formed in 1986 in Eastwood on the Nottinghamshire and Derby border. The founder members were a group of like minded dancers and musicians who had tried other forms of Morris dancing and were looking for something a little different. From this small group of people, Black Pig has evolved over the years to what you see today. They are a mixed group of both male and female dancers and musicians. They have performed all over England at a wide variety of events, ranging from pub tours through fetes and festivals. They have danced in California and Germany and also appeared in an episode of the television series Peak Practice.
