A Typical Performance

Room! Room! Brave Gallants Room!

Our Thirty Fifth Year

The Haddenham Mummers perform the traditional village mummers play as published in 1942 by Walter Rose in his book 'Good Neighbours'.

The play was revived in 1976 and every year since then it has been performed in pubs on the days leading up to Christmas. We have two tours every season. The first focuses on pubs in the villages around Haddenham while the second, on the Friday before Christmas Eve, takes the performance through all the village pubs & ex-pubs. It's a tough job but someone has to do it!

After each performance money is collected for local good causes. During our 2010 tours we collected over £1,200 which was split evenly between The MPS Society, Parkinson's UK and the Haddenham "Thursday Club". This year, 2011, we're collecting for MPS as usual plus the local branch of AgeUK. We see it as investment in our futures!

You can see a YouTube video of the play here.

Our next appearance will be the In Village Tour on Friday 23rd December 2011 followed an appearance at the Haddenham Ceilidhs New Years Eve party. See the Appearances section (top left) for the tour details.
