Tuesday, October 11 - 5:30pm
with Dr ‘Funmi Adewole Elliott, nora chipaumire, Yassmin V. Foster, Spider J
“Dub is the blackest of the black. It’s black science. It’s a forward-thinking frequency. It’s a product of confrontation between black and white cultures.”

As the frequency builds for ShebeenDUB, join nora chipaumire, Yassmin V. Foster (academic and Legs Eleven Sound System founding member) and Spider J (producer/musician) to discuss dub.
A performative craft and the dopest of contemporary art-forms, the panel will discuss its cultural and political significance and the UK’s special relationship with the genre.
Moderated by storyteller, dramaturg and senior lecturer in dance, Dr ‘Fumni Adewole Elliot, the conversation will be located in the midst of a built sound system installation, the site of ShebeenDUB by nora chipaumire, part of Dance Umbrella Festival 2022 in partnership with Bernie Grant Arts Centre.
