You’ve seen Catherine Hayward and Shayne Johnson in DJD productions, now see them in their own production where they bring their distinct investigation of rhythm and movement to the stage. Four works, four worlds, exploring power and control, pleasure and pain, otherworldly creatures, and a satirical portrayal of decorum through a blend of tap and contemporary dance.
