Shadow Boxing
A story of defiance in a quest for dignity and respect. The son of a boxer who couldn’t win, Flynn is determined not to end up like his father. He becomes a successful fighter through utter dedication. But is his gruelling training merely an avoidance tactic? A crisis builds as he moves to the title fight and hurtles to a shattering conclusion. James Gaddas’s hard-hitting play features an emotionally intense and highly physical performance from Jonny Collis-Scurll, labelled ‘one to watch’ by the Stage following his performance in ‘Weepie’ at C venues during last year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
