Balfour Reparations (2026-2046) is a compelling performance lecture that examines the UK’s colonial legacy in Palestine, focusing on Arthur James Balfour, Prime Minister (1902-1905) and Foreign Secretary (1916-1919), and his role in denying Palestinian political rights.
Utilising critical fabulation and Afrofuturism, Palestinian dancer, choreographer and scholar, Farah Saleh, intertwines history, fiction, and fantasy, drawing inspiration from archival materials.
Join us in 2046, as a member of the Reparations Committee, reflecting on a fictive apology letter issued by the UK government in 2026, promising reparations to the Palestinian people.
What does accountability look like? What might justice mean?
This is art as a genuine attempt to make a difference in the world
