Performance of Rasheed Araeen's ballet on water cancelled after high levels of sewage found in London river
Briefly

"This is another case of decades of underinvestment in our sewage system impacting another group of passionate people who love the water. We’re an island nation with a natural affinity for our waterways and seas for sports, recreation and art and both regulators and water companies need to start taking this seriously and invest money in monitoring, regulation and improvement of our wastewater systems." - Tim Nunn, Surfers Against Sewage
"Discosailing is a play. Play is a part of human life, it's a dance of the body on water. The body is free to respond to balance, it can be a sort of ballet on water, and this artistic experience was meant to highlight that natural connection." - Rasheed Araeen
