The Billerettes at Buxton town carnival
Not-so-youthful majorettes - The Billerettes are a majorette troupe with a difference, apart from the occasional girl the rest of the team may dress like girl majorettes, may even look like girl majorettes, but they are most definitely men. Billerette founder and leader, Bill Weston was watching a carnival parade pass by in Buxton. He soon found himself plunging into the depths of depression by the apathy on the faces of the column after column of girl Majorettes and girls Morris teams that paraded by. They had obviously forgotten what carnival is meant to be, fun, fun, fun. Bill decided that a change was needed and felt confident that men could show the girls just what entertainment is all about. http://www.billerettes.org.uk/ They have been performing for 40 years!
