Bam! The Royale is a real knockout, a relentlessly gripping boxing drama - Time Out London

Jay 'The Sport' Jackson dreams of being the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. But it's 1905 and, in the racially segregated world of boxing, his chances are as good as knocked out.

In daring to realise his dream, is Jay responsible for putting African American lives in the danger zone? Told in six rounds and set in a boxing ring, The Royale is inspired by the often overlooked story of Jack Johnson, a boxer who - at the height of the Jim Crow era - became the most famous and the most notorious black man on Earth.

Marco Ramirez's explosive play is part of Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, featuring a new introduction from Rachel Chavkin.
