A LIVE THEATRE Production

WORLD PREMIERE

Champion

Written by ISHY DIN

Summer 1977. South Shields. Muhammad Ali is coming to town. 

Set during the great boxer’s now legendary visit to The North East this searing new drama shows the effect that such a major event has on a mixed race family in South Shields. Written by one of contemporary theatre’s most regarded writers Ishy Din, this epic offering stirs up questions of identity, community and what each of us are truly fighting for.

See in 2025 with a play that hits hard!
