Watch the rumba-infested cult classic and take part in the strictly ballroom challenge: see who is crowned the Pan Pacific Grand Prix Champion. Followed by the Kendal Dance Studio Disco.

London’s queens of immersive cinema/arts nightclubbing bring you an evening celebrating the best in trashy camp and transgressive culture. After sell outs in Hackney, Shoreditch, and National Trust properties, Amy Grimehouse takes over JW3. Dress-up is encouraged - whether it be beginner-class slacks, or ballroom-best.

About the film: Scott Hastings is a champion caliber ballroom dancer, but much to the chagrin of the Australian ballroom dance community, Scott believes in dancing "his own steps". Fran is a beginning dancer and a bit of an ugly duckling who has the audacity to ask to be Scott's partner after his unorthodox style causes his regular partner to dance out of his life. Together, the two misfits try to win the Australian Pan Pacific Championships and show the Ballroom Confederation that they are wrong when they say, "there are no new steps!"
