Center Theatre Group presents the world premiere of Marco Ramirez's The Royale at L.A.'s Kirk Douglas Theatre. Boxer Jay "The Sport" Jackson wants a shot at the world title. Trouble is, he's living in a time when blacks and whites did not face off in the ring. But he's out to win at any cost, no matter what the consequences. So he comes out swinging, slinging words in a spectacular barrage of rhythm and heat, language and adrenaline, sinew and swagger. The question is, will he -- and those he loves -- be strong enough to handle the responsibility that comes with the recognition from this unprecedented undertaking? With muscular storytelling, syncopated dialogue and emotional right hooks, you'll feel like you're sitting ringside. Learn More

Written on Oct 24 2005Unbelievable tour de farce!
Written on Oct 17 20051st half was what I expected, very funny, very inventive. Then it got surreal and kind of lost it's way. Also, for a supposedly family friendly event, there's liberal use of "fuck". I have no problem with profanity, but it didn't seem to fit the tone of the piece. Still worthwhile.
1st time at the Kirk Douglas as a legitimate theater. Space is more intimate than I expected, which is by no means a bad thing. I look forward to going to other events there.
Written on Oct 18 2005Very innovative and full of energy!

Description
All Wear Bowlers
Created and Performed by Trey Lyford and Geoff Sobelle
Directed by Aleksandra Wolska
A dreamscape vaudeville where gravity refuses to behave.
Two silent film clowns take a wrong turn and find themselves trapped in a haunted theatre, where hard-boiled eggs play tricks on them and gravity refuses to behave. The poetic landscape of Beckett, the elegant absurdity of Magritte and the dysfunctional virtuosity of Laurel & Hardy collide to create a world of venomous ventriloquists and belligerent bowlers.
