Caged

Four people are performing around a white bird cage-like structure of white bars. Three are on the outside, while one is inside on hands and knees. The cage is on a concreted are bordered by stone railings with tall trees and blue sky behind.

Caged

by Linden Dance Company

Take an exhilarating journey to connection.

CAGED is an explosive, evocative dance experience following four characters on a journey from solitude to connectedness.

Inspired by real life stories of isolation and set within, around and atop a three-metre-high birdcage, CAGED encourages a connected, diverse society. The four performers explore ambiguous worlds of entrapment and safety, a delicate balance that ultimately leads to feelings of hope and reconciliation.

The emotive themes are reflected in an athletic, daring physicality and a punchy soundtrack.
