“I have no words; my voice is in my sword, / thou bloodier villain than terms can give thee out!”

-Macbeth, Act 5 Scene 8

From Shakespeare to musical theater, from slapstick to dance-hybrid and everything in between, Fight Scenes Night is an evening not to be missed.

Content warnings: depictions of partner violence, choking, and…well, a lot of fighting.
