Welcome: This site provides access to our Sequence Dance Script Library. The library currently contains around 1400 scripts, covering the very best and most popular dances. We are now the world’s largest online archive of sequence dance scripts and offer the best value for money available in purchasing scripts.
The Script Library: Scripts are currently available for almost all official UK prizewinning dances from 1980 to 1999, most of the prizewinners from the seventies and late sixties, plus a selection of non-prizewinners and unofficial dances, some never previously released. In addition, the library covers most of the popular sequence dances enjoyed by social dancers across the world, including some very old dances, plus most dances of interest to current medalists and competitors. The library extends to both Classical Sequence (or Old Time) and Modern & Latin Sequence. The best sequence dances are, in our view, those originating in the late sixties, seventies, and eighties, and we now have a very comprehensive archive from these golden years. If you are looking for a particular dance, there is a search facility on the right of this Page. If you have any requests, please contact us and we will accelerate their publication where possible (we have most scripts for the last 60 years). To help you find the best dances, commentaries are included (either here or on The Blog), plus the lists include my own personal rating – a star system is used. We are continually adding to the Library – dances for future publication will be selected from the list on our Future Page.
The Scripts: Scripts are provided as pdf files which can be readily downloaded, saved to disc, viewed off-line and printed. Our scripts are based on the original scripts written by the arrangers, and according to standard scripting conventions as adopted by the major UK teaching associations. Some sample scripts are available to view via our Samples Page. An information sheet offering general guidance on reading scripts is available here. For a list of abbreviations used in the scripts, click here. To go direct to the Script Library Pages, click here.

The Blog: We have a Blog running in parallel with this site containing numerous interesting items and useful supplementary materials, in particular our Technical Tid-Bit articles. To visit, click here. We also have a Facebook Page – click here.
We hope you find these resources useful, and that they will help ensure Sequence Dancing has a healthy future.
Future of the Site: The Site will remain in place until December 31st 2013, and subscriptions are currently available to run up till that date, at which point the site will close. If anyone would like to purchase this site and continue running it as a commercial venture, I am prepared to sell it. Any interested parties wishing to discuss this should contact us at pcda@inbox.com.
