Dancing Shoes will be staged at the Traverse Theatre in Edinburgh on 20 August 2026 at 17:40. The production explores themes of addiction and friendship through Donny’s story and his relationships with Jay and Craig.
Donny’s life has been shaped by addiction and isolation, but an unexpected friendship with Jay and Craig begins to change everything. When videos of Donny’s private dancing routines suddenly go viral, newfound attention threatens the bond they have built. A joyful and deeply moving story about connection, recovery and the courage to let yourself be seen. This will be a special stripped-back version of the hit show, reimagined for Shedinburgh in partnership with Traverse Theatre.
