"Northern? Once you get it... no going back."

It's 1976 and for 18-year-old Eugene life should just be starting; but with a humdrum job, no romance and living in a grey Northern town, there's little prospect of adventure until Eugene gets a taste of Northern Soul - and suddenly what seemed like existence becomes more like living...

Footloose and fancy free, Eugene is transported into a world of sassy soul and bold blues where bodies back flip and fleet fly. But amongst the heat of the dance floor there is someone even more electrifying - Maxine. Will their eyes meet across a crowded room? And can Eugene pull off the moves to win her soul? A play about rhythm, romance and rocking your world. Hull Truck's revival of Mick Martin's modern Northern classic will take your breath away.
