Combining testimony, movement and ensemble performance, the work draws on the physical rhythms of boxing training, incorporating choreography alongside spoken word. Presented inside three community boxing venues across Glasgow, it captures the discipline, determination and camaraderie found in the sport. Created by Theatre Alliance as part of the Glasgow 2026 Festival.
