JigJaw (Janet Russell, Rosie
Davis, Kerry Fletcher, Frances Watt) combine the percussion & passion of
dance traditions with vocal harmonies in a tight, scintillating quartet of
singing & dancing talents. They use step-dancing, social dancing, mouth
music, nonsense rhyme & songs from Britain & beyond for a highly
distinctive performance, rekindling the links between dancers & singers,
songs and dances, performers and audiences.
They say: 'We'll be singing & dancing in each part of the workshop.
Everyone will be encouraged to sing & dance. There will be an option for
step dancers to learn a routine. Concentrate on singing or dancing, or have a
go at everything - enjoy!'
