Wretlers torsos in coloured leotards for Wrestling Mad
Written & directed by John Godber

This grappling new comedy takes a wry look at wrestling from face down on the canvas and asks, is it just theatre with sweat?

Jack and Jeff wanted to be actors until the local council pulled their grant. Now with no future, no girls and a life of walk-on parts and Chinese takeaways, they need to re-invent themselves.

But as wrestlers? They must be joking!

John Godber peels back the latex to look at a world fraught with tension, egos and broken friendships. Sometimes it’s hard to know where the illusion stops, but you can fake anything except gravity!

"...very funny" The Times
