DanceLive 2024: Small Town Boys

Shaper/Caper presents Small Town Boys – an interactive show exploring the escapism of queer nightlife during the 80s AIDS crisis through dance and spoken word. The story follows a young man as he leaves his small hometown to find refuge in the bright lights and warm embrace of the big city. He discovers solace and cheer in the city’s LGBTQ+ scene, but soon finds himself navigating a terrifying unfolding health crisis, almost completely ignored by the government.
