This book investigates how British South Asian dancers navigate the precarious intersections of neoliberal economic structures, national identity, and racial politics through their artistic practice. Anusha Kedhar, a scholar and practitioner, utilizes her dual perspective as an academic and a dancer to analyze the labor conditions of the UK dance industry. She argues that the flexibility required of these performers is both a creative asset and a symptom of broader systemic instability within the neoliberal state.

Scholars in dance studies and sociology frequently cite this work for its rigorous application of neoliberal theory to the performing arts. Experts highlight the text as a significant contribution to understanding the intersection of racial identity and precarious labor in contemporary Britain.
