Description It provides vividly compelling sequences of dance with accessible messages and, at the same time, goes beyond the usual suffrage year celebration topics and turns the act of celebration into one of critique. By the end of the show Jordan's message is clear: little has actually changed in the everyday realities of New Zealand women in 100 years and it's time we took a closer look at what we are celebrating.
