Speaking as someone who enjoys watching a whole range of dance styles, including morris, rapper, classical ballet (eg Royal Ballet), more theatrical (eg Northern Ballet), most Matthew Bourne productions through to very modern abstract stuff ... I agree it seemed more like a Monthy Python skit. I think it was Tolstoy who claimed that you cannot produce art for money (a deliberate overstatement for effect, I imagine), because an artist is trying to express something whatever it takes, whereas someone working to a deadline for a fixed amount of money is inherently compromised. I have of course greatly over-simplified the argument. Anyway, it felt to me that someone had said 'there needs to be a dance as part of the event' and so it was done, without any real concern about whether it had any coherent concept or objective behind it.
