The North Wall presents 'Dead On Her Feet'

The North Wall presents Dead On Her Feet, the UK premiere of our first home-grown production.

An abandoned dance hall. Six young people desperate for fame, fortune and next week’s rent. An unscrupulous promoter. A ravenous audience and a stranger with a past he’s trying to hide.

Out of the real-life phenomenon of 1930s dance marathons comes a new and powerful play which uses a thrilling blend of drama, music and movement to speak directly to our younger generation, brought up on a diet of X Factor and reality TV, against the backdrop of a world seemingly in financial freefall.

Dead On Her Feet is an electric and athletic new work written by Emmy award-winning screenwriter Ron Hutchinson and directed by Barry Kyle, Honorary RSC Associate Director.

With bodies and souls stretched to breaking point there can only be one winner…but winning comes at its own cost…how far could you go?
