Inspired by Kaplan's real-life middle school journal entries and set in a boxing ring, Lee goes toe-to-toe with his childhood tormentors as he tells the story of merciless bullying attacks and their long-lasting impact. It is the fight of his life: a story about finding the will and a way to finally stand up to the bullies.
After sold-out premiere runs in New York and Washington, D.C. and an international tour of schools and theatres in the U.S. and Canada, Bully returns for a limited run at New York's IRT Theater, in association with The Farm Theater and Stable Cable Lab Company.
