The worlds of theatre and boxing collide for a thrilling workout that will exercise the intellect while breaking a sweat. In conjunction with the World Premiere presentation of Stein | Holum Projects’ THE WHOLEHEARTED, ArtsEmerson is partnering with The Ring Boxing Club to present an aerobic boxing class that will demonstrate the choreography and techniques used by Drama Desk Award-winner Suli Holum in training for this knockout role. The class will be co-facilitated by The Ring Boxing Club trainer Andrew Medina. Admission is FREE but space is limited!

ABOUT THE WHOLEHEARTED
Utilizing forces of text, song, and physicality, The Wholehearted is a play that dives into a narrative fraught with the violence of love, the sexuality of sports and the truth behind the stories we tell ourselves. Collaborative partners and Drama Desk nominees Deborah Stein and Suli Holum tackle the story of a fictive female boxer based on the biographies of iconic women in athletic history. Unlike any solo theatrical experience, Stein and Holum deliver a unique multimedia feast, questioning the line between personal fantasy and factual reality.
