Harrowing and unpredictable, Reid Farrington, Tyson Vs. Ali brings the debate heard in hundreds of barbershops across America to life – placing these two giants in the ring together in a way no one has previously imagined. A volatile combination of dance, theater, and new-media stagecraft, the palpable emotional and physical experience of boxing is examined through the larger-than-life personas of Iron Mike and The Greatest. With choreography by Laura K. Nicoll and script by Frank Boudreaux, leather hits flesh for 9 rounds of action as the boxers spar with each other, interpreting these men and their myths. Tyson vs. Ali was given 10 weeks of developmental residency at 3LD over the course of a year and premiered as part of PS122’s 2014 Coil Festival.
