Take On Me – Dante or Die’s 80s flashback in Hoo Sports Centre
TAKE ON ME , a show by theatre company Dante or Die, is set amongst the 1980s world of headbands and leg-warmers that digs below the surface of the luminous colours and fitness fads.
Taking place after hours in your local leisure centre the audience are divided into small groups to be a fly on the wall as they're led through the centre, to the swimming pool, the changing rooms, the gym and beyond to hear the inner voices of a variety of characters as they strive for a better version of themselves.
Ideas Test worked with Dante or Die to bring the show to Medway in 2018.
Performed by a company of professional actors with a local supporting cast and set to live acoustic versions of classic 80’s pop hits TAKE ON ME is be an intimate and comical experience.
We helped Dante or Die find Emma Dewhurst, who worked as a local Project Co-Ordinator. Her job was to spread the word about the show and to help recruit the community cast and crew.
The show was rehearsed and performed in Hoo Leisure Centre on 1st & 2nd December 2018 in two shows.
