Before Jesse Owens
Before Jackie Robinson
There was Jack Johnson
Loosely inspired by the life of Jack Johnson, the first African American heavyweight champion, Marco Ramirez’s (“Orange is the New Black”) new play brings to explosive life the sights and sounds of the early-20th-century boxing circuit, and the ultimate fight for a place in history.
Jay “The Sport” Jackson dreams of being the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. But it’s 1905, and in the segregated world of boxing, his chances are as good as knocked out. When a crooked boxing promoter hatches a plan for “the fight of the century,” The Sport just might land a place in the ring with the reigning white heavyweight champion.
Contains strong language.
