Sliding Tackle

Sliding Tackle rediscovers neglected stories and forgotten voices for the stage. Most recently: 'Target Man' by Mark Starling at @KingsHeadThtr.

So last night was the end of our run of #TargetMan (for now 😉). Thank you to the @KingsHeadThtr for having us, and for everybody that came to watch and spread the word. And of course thank you to our wonderful cast, director, writer and crew. Until next time!

Today, six years ago, I came out 🌈. I was warned by many but I am glad I stopped asking, instead did what I felt was right. It proved to me, „you don’t have to be like anybody to be somebody“

Superb theatre performance by @SlidingTackleCo of their #Targetman play @KingsHeadThtr on Saturday evening.The @SohoFC team were left mightily impressed at how the play dealt with the complexities of an openly gay footballer coming out publicly. Congrats to everyone! @GezTomnay

[Neil @slidingndiving]

Absolutely loved #TargetMan yesterday starring the wonderful @MateoOxley - a timely, succinct, thought provoking, warm & absorbing take on the challenges of coming out in sport. Well done all!

[Arsenal gaygooners @gaygooners]

I REALLY hope this can get picked up, everyone should get the chance to see such a topic that is Still. Not. “Ok” in today’s football society! Go @SlidingTackleCo and @KingsHeadThtr for putting it into production. Well done to all the team, Writer, Director, Technical, and cast👏🏻

[Peter Dudas 💙 @dudaspeter]

Was I impressed with @SlidingTackleCo's #TargetMan earlier this week? Well, I'm back at @KingsHeadThtr to watch @MateoOxleyand, @wmrobinson_ and the rest of the cast delivering another impressive performance. 👏👏👏👏👏
