We Should Definitely Have More Dancing

A poignant, yet life-affirming postcard from the edge. Stuffed full of heart and love - and dancing.

We Should Definitely Have More Dancing by Clara Darcy and Ian Kershaw

Clara Darcy is a healthy young actor. She鈥檚 also (almost) care-free, (kind of) happily single and joyously dancing through life. But, little does she know her world is about to be turned upside down thanks to the arrival of a tumour, like a big fist - slap-bang in the middle of her head. Set in a radio studio in Manchester, Clara tells her astonishing real-life story. A poignant, yet life-affirming postcard from the edge.
