RPM is an energetic and engaging show that combines theatre, circus, dance, and roller-skating to explore the question – Has the UK ever truly confronted its colonial past?
Inspiring and entertaining, the work is created with the intention of educating and provoking thought and discussion. Using a mixture of news clips from the time, acrobatics, street dance, and circus, the performers take us from Windrush to modern day Britain on a giant treadmill to explore untold links between current issues and the UKs troubled history.
We have a range of wraparound activities that can accompany the performance with the aim of audience development and community engagement. The show can be performed indoors (run time 60 minutes) or outdoors (run time approximately 45 minutes).
