Jack (Paul Copley) and Freddie (Lorn MacDonald) make for odd dance partners...

“Come and trip it as you go, on the light fantastic toe…”
 
Jack (Paul Copley) and Freddie (Lorn MacDonald) meet every Tuesday evening to dance. Or try to dance. Try to maintain a bit of dignity. Try to sweat out a bit of elegance. Seventy and twenty-one, they are men from different worlds, brought together by a love of the twist and a longing for something which resembles happiness. 
 
Written by Miriam Battye. Produced and directed by Becky Ripley.
