Monday 24th - Friday 28th September 2012, 1.45pm
Dancer, writer and broadcaster, Deborah Bull, offers up a social history of dance in the UK. She looks at what we know – or have imagined – about the dances of ‘Old England’; at how we’ve danced to find love; how we’ve danced to find competition success; how we’ve danced to find ourselves; and how we’ve danced to lose ourselves and find refuge during some of the darkest moments in our national history.
