      One distinct aspect of Scarborough faire is the strong presence of country dance. Quite a lot of people at this faire have a broad and deep knowledge of country dance. Here, you wil find literally scores and scores of cast members, crafters, hired hands, and even ren addicts like me who partake in it. Below are a number of shots exemplifying the dance skills of the Scarborough cast.

The above description and all of these wonderful images are brought to you by Frank Hui. Because of his devotion, I have nothing to add. --Robyn Sotherby
