"When a seaside town is gripped in a vice of drug fuelled corruption, sometimes the only solution is to book a dance with the Morris Men."



In the pursuit of his childhood sweetheart, loner Tommy Martin enrols in her Morris dancing club. He soon realises that all is not as it seems and covers for a secret society of shadowy assassins as ancient as the British realm. Before he knows it, Tommy is sucked into a perilous under-realm, where danger lurks behind a crimson wax seal and the only dancing is with the devil himself.

Celebrating 'ESKRIMA' 

Eskrima is a Filipino martial art focussing on the use of sticks, bladed and impact/blunt weapons, improvised weapons, and hand-to-hand (empty hand) techniques. Eskrima is a martial art originating from the Philippines and is known for its effectiveness and functional techniques. It is mainly weapon-based and famous for the fact that practitioners start using weapons as soon as they begin studying. Apart from a range of weapons, Eskrima includes kicking, punching, wrestling, grappling and elements of groundfighting. Depending on the region, it is also called Arnis and Kali. The Philosophy of Eskrima emphasizes the importance of mental flexibility and fighters are therefore trained to adapt to any kind of situation, whether they are required to fight with weapons or without them. We are extremely proud to showcase this fabulous martial art as the core combat element of Morris Men. Peter Mahoney, the Eskrima fight arranger for Morris Men has been trained in Warriors Eskrima.
