‘Bitch Boxer’
I wrote ‘Bitch Boxer’ to give myself a part to play. It changed my life. We opened at the Big Belly, Underbelly, Edinburgh Fringe 2012. We did two National Tours, two runs at London’s Soho Theatre, another Edinburgh run as part of the British Council Showcase, and an International Tour.
Team: Directed by Bryony Shanahan. Performed by myself, and then later Holly Aston. Designed by Seth Rook Williams (lights) and Daniel Foxsmith (sound). Script support Sarah Dickenson. Movement support by Imogen Knight and coaches at Islington Boxing Club. Photo: Alex Brenner.
