The Sweet Science of Bruising - Joy Wilkinson

Descriere The Sweet Science of Bruising - Joy Wilkinson

Premiering at Southwark Playhouse, London, in October 2018, in a production by Troupe, Wilkinson's work is an epic tale of passion, politics, and pugilism.London, 1869. Four very different Victorian women are drawn into the dark underground world of female boxing by the eccentric Professor Sharp. Controlled by men and constrained by corsets, each finds an unexpected freedom in the boxing ring. As their lives begin to intertwine, their journey takes us through grand drawing rooms, bustling theatres and rowdy Southwark pubs, where the women fight inequality as well as each other. But with the final showdown approaching, only one can become the Lady Boxing Champion of the World. . .
