In a church hall, ex-professional dancer Mavis holds her tap class. Every Thursday, in stumbles her well-intentioned but not overly talented troupe – the awkward but hugely enthusiastic Lynne, snooty Vera, streetwise Maxine and the rest of the group – all brought together to dance as if no one is watching, and hopefully no-one ever will!That’s until they’re invited to perform at a charity gala. As disbelief is replaced by sheer terror, can this bunch

of amateurs pull together and put on the performance of a lifetime?Starring Brian Capron, known to millions for his award-winning portrayal of the sinister Richard Hillman in Coronation Street, Jessie Wallace, who won the nation’s hearts as the vivacious Kat Slater in EastEnders, and Olivier Award-nominated West End star Rosemary Ashe, this hilariously funny and heart-warming play proves that in dancing as in life, it’s better to follow your own tune.
