- It's about boxing
- It's set in Scotland
Artic Director's Notes-
- Idea came from a ten minute visit to a world famous boxing gym in Brooklym- mesmerized by tense, energetic atmosphere- remarkable experience
- Boxing is often known as the nobel art- damage is done- can be considered a 'blood sport'- adds tension
- Had no intention of shying away from moral debate of boxing
- Dedecated people- found home in boxing- ethos of disipline and respect- also very relevant to acting
- Had boxing coaches that shared their experiences with them
- Cast put through a rigerous training routine
- Playwright= 'second to know'- 2 directors had the idea and then went and found the writer to work with
- They belive their interpretation represents the boxing world with honesty and integrity
