Shona McCullagh leapt into the spotlight 20 years ago when she was a dancer and choreographer with the late lamented Limbs Dance Company. A founding member of the Douglas Wright Dance Company, she has also worked with Footnote and Sydney's Darc Swan, and picked up a bundle of honours along the way. More recently, she has made short films and devised dances for The Lord of the Rings and King Kong. Her new dance, Verge, is part of the Royal New Zealand Ballet's Tutus on Tour, soon pulling up to a town near you.
