A “brilliantly, cleverly funny” romantic comedy that brings boxing and ballroom dance head to head in a match made in heaven. This two-person tour de force of rapid-fire dialogue, high-energy dances, ridiculous puppetry and playful pugilism tells the rags-to-riches story of an immigrant apple seller tricked into becoming a boxer and the dance hall dame with a score to settle who takes him under her wing as they swing their way to the championship. “A masterful production…a beautiful blend of theater, comedy, puppetry and dance.” —Minnesota Monthly post-show “Special Features” Jan 29 – Feb 1 evening performances: Why go?
