“A boogie woogie midlife crisis”.
Damian Callinan, renowned character and standup
comedian, confirms what many had already
suspected: he suffers from OTTDs [Over The Top
Dance Syndrome]. After years of eschewing partner
dancing and cutting up dance floors on his own, he
discovers that the only cure is to learn how to Swing
Dance.
Swing Man sends Callinan on a journey back to
the incidents in his adolescence that set him on his
path - a fracas at a bush dance, unrequited love at
ballroom dancing, and the revelation that as a 17
year old he was abducted by Swing-era obsessed
aliens who set him an ultimatum to learn how to
Swing dance by the time he is 51.
‘Lindy Hop’ on down to watch the three-time
Barry nominee ‘shag’ his way through his ‘Boogie
Woogie’ midlife crisis.
