How ‘Swing’ makes you feel like dancing….!

“It’s an international hit, fresh from New York, Paris, Edinburgh and New Zealand,” Fishamble confirms. “A comedy about dancing and music and love and not settling and feeling like an eejit and being brave and having doubts and trying your best and trying new things and thinking outside the box and seeing things clearly and living as well as you can and giving it a lash”.
