'Head Up' is a story about a single night in town shared between three young dancers in the late 1980s. When Olivia, the leader of her father's dance school hears that she has to pack to move away that night; she's met with Maxine, a new girl transferring into the class from new owners. Together they both invite Chelsea, a fellow dancer, out with them and share their life stories and unique pasts over some drinks.
During a time in our lives when we are forced into uncertianty almost every single week, Head Up looks to those struggling with their own situations and periods of their lives where they may feel out of control. It also aims to help parents and carers connect with what the current youth are really feeling and going through right now.
