Assembly Festival

Admin

A knockout solo show about one woman's love of pro wrestling. Part confessional, part exuberant oral history of sports entertainment's greatest matches and most loved characters. Acclaimed comedian Tegan Verheul leaves no Stone (Cold) unturned in her unflinchingly raw autobiographical debut that grapples with heartbreak, friendship and the healing power of bloodsport. Riotously funny, unexpectedly touching, brilliantly human. You will leave a wrestling fan.

Tegan Verheul and the Fellowship of the Ring

An undertaker, a hitman and a comedian go into a theatre bar - no joke, it's the set-up for Tegan Verheul's wrestling show. But which match does she reckon was 'a deeply moving piece of performance art?'.
