Fair Play

Charlotte Beaumont and NicK King perform Olivier award-nominated playwright Ella Road’s new play Fair Play.

A gripping and timely exploration of the underside of women’s athletics, Fair Play will be directed by Monique Touko.

When Ann joins Sophie’s running club she’s thrown into a world of regimented training and pure focus. The two girls couldn’t be more different, but soon their shared passion makes them inseparable – dreaming in lanes and lap-times, waking up picturing Olympic medals, each day stronger and faster…

But set head-to-head in the run-up to the World Championships, they find themselves and their friendship put to the ultimate test. As their relationships, their bodies, and their very identities are pulled into public scrutiny, does being exceptional come at too high a price?
