BALLS
January 16, 2018 @ 7:00 pm
$70It’s 1973, and Houston’s Astrodome is playing host to one of the biggest cultural events of all time as Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs face-off in The Battle of the Sexes tennis match.
Co-written by Tony Award nominee Bryony Lavery with Kevin Armento, BALLS is a high-intensity theatrical re-telling of this unforgettable match and the cultural debates it ignited around sexism, women-in-sport, and equality. Called “pulse racing and stomach-tightening” by the Houston Press, One Year Lease’s signature high-energy physical style embraces the carnival atmosphere of the original event, and features a shot-by-shot re-imagining of the entire match.
