Have you ever been left heartbroken, not knowing what to do next, and played a track over and over again? Share your story and dance the pain away!
As part of IMODERN LOVE festival 2023, you are invited to participate in LONGING DISCO staged by artist Nick Fox at The Modern Love Bar (EMST Athens) , Friday 29th September
Longing Disco invites you to come along to share your stories of Modern Love & unspoken personal desires inspired by your favourite ‘lovestruck’ track in an evening of music and dance. Participants request songs beforehand and also anonymously share their personal stories of longing behind song choices that chronicle blissful courtships, tragic romances, displacement, betrayal, unrequited loves, loss hopes and dreams. By connecting through personal stories of love and loss, Longing Disco creates a counterpoint to the digital disconnect and reminds us that longing and loss can also be a powerful driving force to create fulfilment and joy in our own lives.
You can request songs and share your story even if you can’t attend the event .
