Description

A history of dance floors and joyful regret. How a repressed Christian youth minister swapped out Jesus for disco and found a new religion on the dance floor. Jonny Hawkins was once on the straight-and-narrow, but now they're on the queer and wide. In their early 20s Jonny helped start a church, went to Bible College and was preaching the Gospel in front of thousands of people, but since has become one of Australia's most loved DJs, dance floor icon, queer party promoter and a disciple of joy. The only show with a built-in afterparty.
