Description:
RATCO was formed in 1979 to perform a Mummers (Tipteer) play at Christmas time around the area of Hastings in Sussex, England. Our play is an amalgam of two plays collected in Sussex, and has been performed every year since. We blacken our faces in the traditional way to preserve our anonymity.
