BOKS is a performance about identity and belonging, staged by Sjællands Teater as a youth production that has been nominated for a Reumert award. Three young people face each other in the ring ahead of a weekend boxing tournament. In the sport they are rivals, each fighting for their own victory, but each of them is also wrestling with their own life.
The story takes a turn when even the fiercest opponent can turn out to be a true teammate once the fight is about simply being human. The piece asks whether we are more alike than we think, and whether our individual battles with who we are can be won together. Performed by Mathilde Bækmark, Rune Klenø and Katrine Juliane Krone, it runs for 50 minutes without an interval.
