Silent disco returns to the ballroom floor

Here is how it works: collect a headset at the Ballroom doors, flip between three live DJ channels (house, throwbacks, absolute chaos), and watch the room change colour with the channel. Red side sings along; blue side is deep in it; green side is up to something.
