Theatre Center Jay “The Sport” Jackson dreams of being the
undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, but in the racially
segregated world of boxing in 1905, the odds are stacked against him.
When a crooked boxing promoter hatches a plan for “the fight of the
century,” “The Sport” might land a place in the ring with the
reigning white heavyweight champion. Inspired by the real-life
experiences of Jack Johnson, the first African-American heavyweight
world champion, The Royale “captures both the beautiful frenzy of
boxing and the (sadly still relevant) volatile state of race relations
in America” ( The Telegraph ). Map View Nearby
