About us

Welcome to the archive website for AboutTime.

Junior LaniyanFrom 2003 to 2009 Junior Laniyan (Riverdance, Robbie Williams – Live at the Royal Albert Hall) had sourced some of the UK's most gifted rhythm tap dancers/choreographers to create the tap dance company AboutTime. Each individual brought their own unique experience and insight of the art form to collaborate as a company representing the UK on the world stage.

Past performances include The Paul O'Grady Show (Channel 4), Bath International Dance Festival, Unity Festival (O2 and Greenwich Dance), regular guest appearances at the gDA Cabaret including the opening weekend for the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad (Greenwich Dance Agency) and Aspects of Dance (This is the Night at Richmond Theatre).

AboutTime worked towards blowing preconceptions of the tap dance art form out of the water!
