Soken Molly Gang have planned their 2008-9 winter season programme. Come and catch them if you can. See the programme below.
"LUNGE AND GRAPPLE!".
A promenade at the Kirby Riot.
OUR PROGRAMME:
Our current repertoire:
The name Soken Molly Gang comes from the area of North East Essex that includes Thorpe-le-Soken, Kirby-le-Soken and Walton-on-the-Naze which used to be known as Walton-le-Soken.
The Molly version of a Polka.
For the past eight years the Soken Molly Gang has developed its own entertaining form of dance. We have adapted dances from our friends in other sides. Special thanks go to Good Easter and Ouse Washes. We have kept the rustic simplicity of the Cambridgeshire dances and given them a NE Essex twist. We are adding our own dances as we go. Our outings are developing into all round entertainment thanks to the singing skill of some of the gang, the Royal Marine Shanty Crew and other sundry singers. Come and see us when you can. A smile is guaranteed.
On or near 8th December each year we remember
the protestors who were transported to Tasmania
for destroying a threshing machine.
