About this book

Stepping Out is a warm and very funny play about the lives laughs and loves of a group of women (and one man) attending a weekly tap-dance class in a dingy North London church hall. There is ex-professional dancer Mavis who runs the class; cheerfully overweight Sylvia; Andy a plain do-gooder with no confidence; snobby but well meaning Vera; timid Dorothy who works in Social Security; Maxine attractive sharp and very shrewd; fat plain Lynne; Rose the self-styled "token spade" and Geffrey the lone male. As the play progresses the class's dancing improves to such an extent that by the climax a grand charity show performance they have been transformed into triumphant tappers worthy of any chorus line.
