In 1980s Prague, nothing is more dangerous than jazz - but Dansky just can't stop listening to it. Tired of being controlled by the hardline Communist authorities and fascinated by a culture he's never known, Dansky finds himself drawn into the Jazz Section, an elusive group of musicians who have banded together to fight against censorship. This new actor-muso jazz spectacular features a rebellious original score, based on the true story of Karel Srp's and Vladimir Kouril's jazz revolution.
