Review: Gloves On
Tonight I went to Blackwood Miners' Institute to watch Gloves On.
It was a show about boxing, but I was confused at the beginning because we walked into this room and I didn't know what was going on.
There was a lady who had a meeting with the other boxing members. We then walked upstairs to this room and a man told us how to put hand wraps on and was talking to us about the boxing he does.
After that we went downstairs into the main room and watched a boxing match, which was the best part because I understood what was happening.
We were told that everyone can box, even girls (not just boys), and it's fun! Me and my friend Karla quite enjoyed it, although it didn't make sense at the beginning.

On saturday 5th july 2012 me and my cousin (katie98) went to see 'Gloves on' in blackwood miners.
I didn't understand what was going on SO.. I really didn't enjoy it at all.
My point of view is dont go to a show if you have free tickets. BUT if you decide to make sure you read your mails first.

i think i would like this - sounds like an interactive show - the idea is you are part of the performance - the wrap lesson sounds interesting but i guess it's not for everyone
