Join Lottie Adcock, from Dance the Past, as she attempts a whistle-stop tour of the history of dance- cramming over 1,000 years of footwork, choreography and social etiquette into just 40 minutes. Perfect for anyone who has ever wondered how the medieval peasantry let off steam; which moves Mr. Darcy was busting out on the dance floor; or what on earth a “Black Bottom Shuffle” is…

Experience the history of dance spanning the periods from the 10th century to the present day in this fun and informative lecture.
