Punch

About Punch

See a powerful new play about one man's path toward redemption with Punch, written by two-time Olivier winner James Graham (Ink). Running at Manhattan Theatre Club's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre at the same time it premieres in London's West End, Punch follows a young man named Jacob through the whirlwind of drugs, girls, and bar fights that consume his life — all leading up to a fatal accident that lands him in prison. But when he unexpectedly connects with the parents of the victim, he finds a way to salvation and a fresh start.

Adam Penford directs what The Times of London hailed as Graham’s “most moving work yet,” based on a true story of a lethal one-punch crime, the devastating aftermath, and the hope that ultimately followed. See breakout star Will Harrison (Daisy Jones & the Six) and two-time Tony Award winner Victoria Clark (Kimberly Akimbo) in this "shattering play" (London Theatre) on Broadway for a limited time only.

The production is dedicated to James Hodgkinson and all victims of one-punch.
