The 2015 Out of the Loop Fringe Festival will present Rite of Passage Theatre Company: Standing 8 Count.

Standing 8 Count is Van Quattro’s hard-knuckled, true account of 1975: the year he spent as a semi-professional boxer. Punctuated by a soundtrack that will breed audience nostalgia and summon a host of memories, Quattro faces down an opponent more formidable than any he’s faced before: the ghost of his own youth. Standing 8 Count will break your face, your funny bone and your heart. Rite of Passage Theatre Company is dedicated to the cultivation and realization of new and thought-provoking works by both emerging and established artists.

Performances will take place in the Studio Theatre.
