Riassunto

Justin and Jodie have finally made it to the national ballroom-dancing championships in Blackpool. Luka's come all the way from Russia. Nancy's been training for this since she was three. Lee and Samantha arrive on a wave of success.

But what if your dance-floor dreams turn into a nightmare? How do you stop dancing to other people's tunes?

Recensione:

The combination of Amanda Whittington - a writer with an uncommon knack for intelligent, accessible drama - and the gladiatorial arena of sequins and tailcoats is a match made in ballroom heaven... an eminently warm-hearted play that should exponentially increase Whittington's popularity. Which is no mean feat given how popular she is already. --Guardian

This new play will delight anyone who is glued to Strictly Come Dancing each year... This bittersweet story is a joy from start to finish... Amanda Whittington has been described by The Guardian as Britain's most consistently popular female dramatist. Kiss Me Quickstep can only enhance her reputation. --The Stage

Clever and witty... Amanda Whittington uses the setting of the ballroom competition to explore the underlying issues a modern day couple faces in British society. Financial worries, domineering parents, addiction and the value of life are all scrutinised in this compelling and highly relevant play. --reviewshub
