Elizabethan Dancer William Kemp Tours England in 16th Century
The London Graphic recounts William Kemp, a famed actor of Queen Elizabeth’s era, dancing from London to Norwich as the longest dance on record. Attended by a laborer, a servant, and an overseer, he faced no modern obstacles and distributed groats and coins for luck. He rose early to dodge market crowds, danced despite a hip sprain, and retraced steps in Norwich to please his overseer.
