What does it mean for the Museum of Colour to curate a specific canon of dance history from the richly contrasting world of dance in Britain? That is because the canon sits at the intersections of creativity and crisis, conflict and care. It speaks about bodies and beings engaged in making dance irrespective of precarity. It tells stories about people who tell stories. It narrates everyday presence of the artists of the global majority in the United Kingdom, their creative genesis and pursuits. The lineaments of their style are not second to the omissions they have experienced, but it speaks from and for the communities they represent while moving towards speculative futures. A Very British Rhythm offers a space for contemplation, debate, knowledge, and acknowledgements to those willing to listen, read between the lines, and hold space at the still point of the turning world.
