LATEST AS ACTOR
I appear as co-narrator in "America Over The Water", "A Most Sunshiny Day" and "I'm A Romany Rai" - three shows devised and presented by Shirley Collins. "America Over The Water" had its most recent performance at Ancienne Belgique in Brussels on 11th October 2009, as part of their tribute to Alan Lomax. "A Most Sunshiny Day" and "I'm A Romany Rai" had their most recent performances in early August 2009, as part of Sidmouth Folk Week. 

Shirley was awarded the MBE for Services to Music in the 2007 New Year's Honours List
 and a Good Tradition Award by BBC Folk on 2 in January 2008.
She is also President of the English Folk Dance and Song Society.

I also appeared as co-narrator (and singer) in "Down the Lawson Track" - a show about the Australian Bush poet Henry Lawson - with Martyn Wyndham-Read, Shirley Collins, Iris Bishop, Gary Holder and Jackie Oates. The show was last performed at London's Purcell Room on the South Bank in early December 2008.
