Synopsis

Glitterball is a vibrant, life-affirming comedy about cultural identity, belonging, motherhood, and rediscovering your voice, brought to life through live music and irresistible humour. Bursting with warmth and wit, this joyful production explores the possibility of new beginnings.

Half English, half Pakistani, Sonia’s life has always been a bit of a double act, growing up as a one half of a Shirley Bassey tribute act. Now she’s navigating the chaos of middle age, newly divorced, wrangling uncooperative teenagers, and still living in the shadow of her formidable late mother. But when her British Pakistani half-brother she never knew existed suddenly appears on her doorstep, Sonia is propelled into an unexpected journey of self-discovery, uncovering family secrets, and reconnecting with her roots. 

Funny, moving, full of Shirley Bassey songs and infectious Bhangra beats, Glitterball celebrates family in all its forms. Reminding us that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself.
