About
1930s New York, at the height of the Depression: Joe Bonaparte, a gifted young violinist, is lured by a chance at fame and fortune into the brutal world of professional boxing. Pressured by a ruthless manager, tempted by a forbidden love and bound by the expectations of his Italian-American family, Joe is torn between the seductive promise of the American Dream and the quiet honor of a decent life. Sam Yates directs Josh O'Connor in this searing revival of Clifford Odets' American classic. Brought to life with a live string quartet, the propulsive drama explores ambition, identity and the high price of success.
