Don’t Silence the Streets — Bring Dance Back to Leicester Square!
I’m starting this petition to bring back the dancers to Leicester Square. These artists bring life, culture, and joy to the city — they deserve the right to perform and make a living. Let’s support street art, not silence it
Busking dancers add life, culture, and energy to our city. They offer free entertainment, support local talent, and bring people together. From hip-hop to traditional dance, they showcase diverse art that tourists and locals love. Banning them takes away joy, expression, and income for hardworking performers. Instead of shutting them down, cities should regulate and celebrate them. Let’s keep dance alive in public spaces.
