A Sunbury theatre group is hitting the road to bring their their new, high-energy show to the Bowery Theatre in St Albans this weekend, and it’s guaranteed to make the audience smile.

To coincide with the International Day of People with Disability on Saturday, December 3, BoilOver Performance Ensemble will showcase their production ‘Meet Me At The Disco’, a celebration of 1970s music and moves.

BoilOver creative director Carmen Maddison said the show will transport audiences to a world of glitter, gold, vinyl and nylon.

“The production explores the power of self-expression, individuality and being able to come together and share the joys of music and dancing,” Ms Maddison said.

BoilOver is a physical theatre company giving disabled artists rich and diverse opportunities to explore creativity and artistic skills in a professional theatrical setting.

Tickets for the show even include entry to a community disco, which will be held in between the afternoon and evening performances.

With an illuminated floor and disco balls transforming the theatre into a “disco-lovers paradise”, the audience is invited to join the cast in wearing their best disco outfits too.

The standing event will have seating provided for those who need mobility support. There will be two performances at 2pm and at 7pm. Tickets are moving fast.

Ms Maddison said recognising International Day of People with Disability gave everyone a chance to “celebrate the contributions and achievements of people with disability and promote inclusion”.
