Defiant Journey

“Jo-anne is an amazing accomplished musician and after seeing her live performance, I discovered that she is also an amazing storyteller.” – Ivan Riches, Sonic/Visual Artist 

Enter the Dragon’s Cave and succumb to the sonic succulence of the Dragon Cello in its sparkling amethyst splendour. Respond to the gentle hums and the booming roars of the Dragon Cello as it describes the story of its persecution and eventual spectacular rebellion. Come and find your voice within the Dragon’s Cave…

Defiant Journey is a sonic-saga exploring the experiences of disabled and neurodivergent people living under austerity and through the cost-of-living crisis through allegory, sensory exploration, storytelling and original composition played live on the electric Dragon Cello by Jo-anne Cox.

Performance includes: live electric cello, spoken word, vocal expression, song, sensory exploration. (This is a work-in-progress performance).
