cage dancing

Suspended nightclub performance

Cage dancing is dancing inside a suspended or elevated cage, typically at nightclubs or raves.

The dancer—often a go-go dancer in revealing clothing—performs above the crowd, visible from all angles while physically separated from patrons.

The cage serves as both stage and protective barrier: She spent weekends cage dancing at a club downtown.
