The Fight Well Project

Ella becomes caught between 2 worlds when she begins to play The Fight Well Project, a hyper-realistic video game with sky-high stakes.

Inspired by the testimony of many black women, the story follows Ella as she embarks on a quest to be well when she starts playing The Fight Well Project, a hyper-realistic video game which might just be the demo version she needs to defeat the real world. Can she make it to the final Boss? With atmospheric sound design, sharp visuals and infused with retro video game references, this work in progress show, first developed through Camden People's Theatre seed commission scheme, explores just what it will take for black women to be believed when it comes to our bodies. Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
