Clashing Steel celebrates the artistry and craftsmanship behind stage combat weaponry, showing how these tools—swords, daggers, spears, shields, and armor—are designed not to harm, but to enhance storytelling through choreographed conflict.
From the duels in Romeo and Juliet to the epic battles in Game of Thrones, these weapons transform action into art.
