“Trick Boxing is a uniquely lovely blending of genres and dramatic tones that make a wonderful, touching, spine-tinglingly captivating piece of storytelling, which doesn't merely warm the cockles of your heart, it flambés them.” (The Scotsman)

Dancing Danny is caught between a rock and a hard place. Indebted to a street tough, who saved his life, Danny reluctantly becomes a boxer to pay him back. While training for matches he meets a dancer named Bella who teaches him a few moves of her own. But is Danny’s meteoric rise to the boxing championships due to his skill, or are there other forces at play? This smash hit physical comedy is told through rapid-fire dialogue, high-energy dance numbers, ridiculous puppetry, true love, and of course, boxing!
