Trick Boxing
May 17, 18, 24, 25 at 7:30 pm
May 19 & 26 at 2:00 pm

“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!

Premiered 2002, Minneapolis, Minnesota

Sossy Mechanics combines the “energetic and charismatic” forces of Brian Sostek and Megan McClellan, two seasoned creators and performers who happened to meet one day in a dance company. Their whimsical sensibilities and exacting standards have earned them an award-winning reputation for creating “clear, brilliant storytelling,” dances that “recall Fred and Ginger at their most playful,” and ”magic out of just about nothing.”

Transforming the stage together since 2000, the Mechanics have developed a devoted public following and garnered critical acclaim wherever they have performed, including Minneapolis, St. Paul, Edinburgh, Prague, London, Vancouver, Seattle, New York City and even Thunder Bay, Ontario.

The Fred and Ginger of the prize fight circuit, they’re champions when they dance together.
