Presenting Hector, the King of Egypt, St George, Old Ben, Beelzebub, the Quack Doctor, Little Devil Doubt, the Turkish Knight and Slasher, just some of the characters from the Southport Mummers who perform ancient and traditional plays in pubs, on greens and in parks in the Southport area; recently they were guests of the Spinners in the Free Trade Hall and Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool. Since the Longhope lifeboat disaster they have collected solely for the RNLl and have made well over £1,000 in that time.
