Dancing Shoes

Presented by A Play, A Pie and A Pint and Glasgow Life, in association with the Traverse Theatre

Written by Stephen Christopher & Graeme Smith

A bold and life-affirming comedy-drama about an unlikely friendship between three men in recovery from addiction.

Donny lives with his mum and has been struggling with addiction most of his life. He also has a secret hobby…dancing alone in his bedroom.

Determined to get help, Donny attends his local support group where he bonds with two other men, Jay and Craig, who change his life. But when a video of Donny dancing goes up online and makes him an accidental viral superstar, the men’s new friendship is put to the test with the whole world now watching on.

From the writers of The Scaff, Dancing Shoes is a life-affirming comedy-drama about isolation, support groups and bedroom dancing that challenges how we treat the most vulnerable people in society.
