A dynamic performance combining diverse art forms to challenge perspectives on Britain’s colonial history.

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?

Both entertaining and inspiriting, RPM provokes
thought and discussion. The performers take
us from post-war Britain to the present day on a
giant treadmill, using a combination of acrobatics,
street dance, and circus to explore untold links
between current issues and the UK’s colonial past.
