The Official Shropshire Bedlams and Martha Rhoden's Tuppenny Dish group are two linked teams of Morris Dancers based in Bishops Castle, Shropshire.
We were founded in 1975 by John Kirkpatrick after he joined Hammersmith Morris in 1959. He started the Shropshire Bedlams in order "to explore the previously neglected repertoire of the Welsh Border Morris".
At a similar time the partner women's team Martha Rhodens Tuppenny Dish was created. Although dancing Border Morris, we choose NOT to wear the traditional Border disguise. We wanted a womens style - energetic, strong and graceful using big movements - so we use handkerchiefs rather than sticks to emphasise the big movements.
