🎉 WINNER 🎉
We are thrilled that #Punch has been named Best New Play at the @CCTheatreUK
Commissioned by Adam Penford, written by James Graham and designed by Anna Fleischle, #Punch has been on an extraordinary journey. From its world premiere in 2024 at Nottingham Playhouse to a sell-out at the Young Vic and then simultaneous runs in the West End and on Broadway, this powerful play has moved people to tears and initiated much needed conversations.
With thanks to the brilliant creatives, cast and London producers KPPL Productions, Mark Gordon Pictures and Eilene Davidson Productions in association with the Young Vic Theatre and Nica Burns.
Our deepest thanks to Joan Scourfield, David Hodgkinson and Jacob Dunne for allowing us the privilege of sharing their story.
Punch is dedicated to James Hodgkinson and all victims of one-punch.
