OUR MIGHTY GROOVE

Our Mighty Groove is an immersive-interactive production set within a New York underground nightclub where the space is filled with dance, music and diva antics. You are the audience and performer as you observe and experience the individual attributes of five female club goers whose personalities and amusing behaviour leave you standing on the edge of your feet!

Using Vicki Igbokwe-Ozoagu’s signatory blend of club styles, House, Waacking and Vogue, fused with African and Contemporary Dance, Our Mighty Groove is the theatre clubbing experience that empowers you to let go and LIVE YOUR LIFE on the dance floor!
