Disco Queen by Ella Tighe
Thursday 10th April | 7:30pm | The Alhambra Studio, Morley Street, Bradford, BD7 1AJ | Pay What You Decide
Step into the high-speed, full-throttle world of competitive disco freestyle with Disco Queen!
Inspired by competitive disco freestyle, a form of dance born out of the iconic 1970s film Saturday Night Fever, this captivating show brings to life the fierce determination, jaw-dropping athleticism, and glittering spectacle of freestyle dance, practised by more that 46,000 young dancers in village halls and studios up and down the country.
Join Ella on a journey of high leg kicks, splits, spins, and gravity defying moves as she revisits her days in a hidden world where fake tan, rhinestones, and raw ambition rule. From smoky community halls to the high-stakes competition circuit, Disco Queen unpacks the highs and lows of striving for perfection in a community of strong young women navigating the realities of working-class Britain—all in the hope of becoming a champion, a legend, an icon… a Disco Queen.
Expect pulsing disco beats, enduring heats, high-energy choreography, and a story that celebrates resilience, community, and the relentless pursuit of passion. It’s a celebration of confidence, courage, and the spirit of competition—a chance to cheer on the underdog and discover the grit behind the glitter. Are you ready to step into the world of Disco Queen?
