Back my special request for two final rumbles! Danson Thunderbolt struggles to connect with his autistic son, Luke, so he has to wrestle the Autistic Shadow to try and make contact with Luke.
Watch real wrestling as the struggle is played out, an emotional roller coaster of what it's like to live with Luke, from the 2025 Legend of the Fringe.
WINNER BEST REGIONAL PRODUCTION COLCHESTER FRINGE 2023.
"The most visceral, funny, in-your-face, emotionally affecting plays I've seen in years" (East Anglian Daily Times.)
