‘H’ & Mad Cat
“H” – aka Helen Peers – lives in Cheshire and “Mad Cat” – aka Cathy Hodgson – lives in Ripon, North Yorkshire
“H” and Mad Cat met at The Deans Chance to Dance week long event in Tenerife in September 2005. Since then, they have worked together and choreographed some dances.
Distance is no problem for both of them as with the technology of e-mail and texting each other on a regular basis, their dances have been fine tuned.
Their dances have been demonstrated to other known choreographers Pat Stott, Robbie McGowan Hickie, Charlotte Macari and Steve Mason.
The inspiration for the dance, “grace”, came after Cathy won tickets to go and see Simon Webbe in concert in Harrogate, a short distance from her home. Cathy had only heard the song on the National Lottery the previous Saturday and then heard it live in Harrogate the following Tuesday. The tickets were won at 9am on the Tuesday morning, picked up at 11am from the radio station and the concert started at 9pm on the Tuesday. The dance was then worked on during the course of Wednesday and taught to Helen the following Saturday before being shown to Charlotte and Steve on the same Saturday afternoon.
This seems to be the way that “H” and Mad Cat operation. A song inspires one of them, and they work together via phone, e-mail and text and hey presto, a dance is born.
