"Takes your breath away and leaves a tear in your eye. The Royale isn’t merely good; it’s a knockout." - Arnold Wayne Jones, Dallas Voice 

**********

Jay "The Sport" Jackson dreams of becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion, though as an African-American boxer in 1905, Jay's chances seem knocked out from the start.  But when a boxing promoter hatches a plan for "the fight of the century," Jay might get his chance to step in the ring with the reigning heavyweight champion after all.  Winner of two Obie Awards, an Outer Critics Circle Award and a Drama Desk Award, The Royale is inspired by the story of Jack Johnson, a boxer who - at the height of the Jim Crow era - became the most famous and the most notorious black man on earth.
