Set amidst the 80’s during the jobs market crisis of the Thatcher era and HIV/AIDS endemic; a disabled, unemployed mechanic, Nicholas is unfairly denied the chance of applying for the job he’s best suited for, due to his disability. Frustrated, we’re taken on a musical journey of singing & choreography through Disco and Ballroom, through his imagination. Giving a voice to his silenced, jobseeking peers, calling for access and change. Revealing each ‘nameless’ characters story and their in/visible disability creating a symbol of hope in this imagined world, before Nicholas is brought back to reality after being urged to get a job.
