Inordinately proud of how SUPLEX came together at this year's Dublin fringe, and even more grateful for the team who made it happen. Also completely bowled over to have won the @solasnua_ New Voices Award. It truly takes a village to build a ring 🤼‍♀️

Professional wrestling is deadly.
Trans people in sports are rad.

SHE'S A WINNER BABY!

We're absolutely blown away to have won the Solas Nua New Voices Award for our recent performances of SUPLEX @dublinfringefest alongside our wonderful Set Designer @izzie.hamilton who took home the Making it Happen Award. Additional to this, we had the privilege of being nominated for the Radical Spirit Award. Madness altogether.

Thank you so much to every single person who was part of the production, it really is not possible without the endless support of our audiences, teams and loved ones xx

Catch a sneak peak of the cast of SUPLEX in action during some recent training sessions @ffpwrestlingireland
with @katey_harvey_

If gender is a performance, then wrestling is the Oscars.

Meet Danu, a trans woman who picked a terrible name, as she traverses the sissy, cissy world of wrestling, confronts shadows from her past, and tries to excel in the sport she absolutely loves, despite it not loving her back.

JAXBANDED THEATRE finally explores “The Trans Issue” in sports once and for all, asking the question: do you still care if it’s all fake anyway?
