JIGJAW : SINGING FOR DANCING WORKSHOP

10.45 a.m.- 4.45 p.m. Places £30
Elephant & Castle White Hill Lewes BN7 2DJ UK
   
        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!'

This will be an absolute hoot. I should mention that there is a fair bit of dance floor in the club-room, so no-one will be dancing on carpet unless they want to practice quietly.

We still have workshop places and evening tickets available.
