The story of a shop at the end of a row of shops – Harry Redman’s Fish ‘n’ Chips
A poem, a dance and a film
Poet: Adam Strickson
Dancer: Sanchita Mazumdar
Film maker: Elia Tomé
Sanchita uses a mix of Indian Kathak and BSL (British Sign Language) to illustrate the poem.
Number Twenty launched at a Parade Party in January in the centre of the village of Slaithwaite, near Huddersfield.
The film can be watched online, and was also shown every weekend in the SlawitShop exhibition at Colne Valley Museum in Golcar from January through to mid March.
Number Twenty is a collaboration between Adam Strickson and Balbir Singh Dance Company.
