ABOUT THE SHOW:
"Should middle age really stop you from being a raving reprobate?
Still Raving In Your 40’s? is an emotional, euphoric and laugh‑out‑loud spoken‑word and music theatre show that dives headfirst into rave culture, aging, identity and survival on the dancefloor. Through razor‑sharp storytelling, raw honesty and high‑energy delivery, Donald Jenkins takes audiences on a journey from sweaty warehouse raves to the realities of adulthood — without losing the pulse, humour or heart of the underground scene. This is a show for anyone who ever danced until sunrise… and anyone who wonders if they still can."
