Trick Boxing

Dancing Danny is caught between a rock and a hard place. Indebted to a street tough who saved his life, Danny reluctantly becomes a boxer to pay him back. Then he meets a dancer named Bella, who teaches him a few moves of her own. But is Danny’s meteoric rise to the boxing championships due to his skill, or are there other forces at play? Two performers play 14 characters in this smash-hit 1930s-set physical comedy told through rapid-fire dialogue, high-energy dance numbers, ridiculous puppetry, true love and, of course, boxing! Having garnered awards and raves since its 2002 premiere, the Sossy Mechanics’ smash-hit will “send the entire audience out of the theatre with a spring in their step” according to The Guardian.
