Welcome to the second series from Through the Dooryard. In this three-part series Poorva and Mazie do a deep dive into the 127 year old Way Bak Ball of Bar Harbor, also known as the Hayseed Ball. The first episode is a walk through the wacky traditions which make this dance so unique. They speak to those closely acquainted with it and those who are only peripherally involved to get a better understanding of the dance.

Stay tuned for the unfolding of a uniquely Downeast tale with unexpected twists and turns to come!
