SCOTTISH PREMIERE
A young man leaves his small hometown to find refuge in the bright lights and warm embrace of the big city. He discovers solace and joy in the city’s LGBTQ+ scene, but soon finds himself navigating a terrifying unfolding health crisis, almost completely ignored by the government.
Following a sold-out run of performances in Dundee in 2023, Small Town Boys will be touring six cities in Scotland during 2024, performed in a nightclub venue in each location.
Presented in Glasgow at the iconic Polo Lounge, a cast of eight dancers, a community cast, a soundtrack of 80s & early 90s anthems, as well as original music, bring the joy and chaos of the club scene to life.
Choreographed by the award-winning Thomas Small and designed by Becky Minto, Small Town Boys will have audiences laughing, crying and dancing the night away.
‘A joyful, euphoric experience where I felt drunk on energy’. CLITBAIT
Written, directed and choreographed by Thomas Small
