Description

A stage sequel to our critically acclaimed dance film, Catch the Bird Who Won't Fly. Bird explores 'What happens when you run away from domestic abuse?', a question posed in fear of the cultural stigma at those who escape it, or try to. A trio of dancers weave the story to a specially commissioned live music score by Jonathan Mayer.
