South Lincolnshire Appalachian Dance Show Slapdash started life as part of the Women’s Music Project at Blackfriars Arts Centre in 1993. We perform traditional percussive clog dances from the Appalachian mountains of the USA. Most of these dances have undergone changes to survive in the unfamiliar landscape of the Fens. And others have completely been made up in Pinchbeck. So what we have is the formative stage of what will one day be a traditional Lincolnshire dance form.  The dancing is high-energy, noisy and fun.
