Theatre

The Hen & Chickens Theatre

109 St Paul's Rd London N1 2NA

About This Event

2nd & 3rd May 7.30pm £11.50

What do you want to say out loud?

What is your best-kept secret?

What are you afraid to leave unsaid?

’Core Values’ is an exploration and collision of memories, moments and confessions that delve into our relationships and innermost thoughts and feelings. How we keep them, lose them, protect them, and how they make us weirdly and messily human.

ComedyTheatre

About This Event

4th May, 1st June 7.30pm, 5th October, 2nd November, 7th December £13

Shakespeare hasn’t written anything new for an age, so we thought we’d give him a hand. Using his language, your audience suggestions and our overactive imaginations, we create a brand new Shakespeare play live on stage! Join ShakeItUp Theatre for an evening of improvised Bard-based Bedlam. Every show is a classic Shakespeare would have been proud to write…. (probably).

Echoes

Theatre

The Hen & Chickens Theatre

About This Event

10th & 11th May 7.30pm £13.50

Echo. Spoke too much and was forever cursed to echo what others say.

Philomela. Tongue severed and could not tell what had been done to her.

Cassandra. A prophetess that no one would believe.

Arachne. Said the wrong thing in the face of the gods.

Helen. Bound to Troy and never allowed to tell her own story.

ECHOES is a one-woman-show about the silencing and loss of the female voice.

Using stories from classical mythology, the play weaves between modern and ancient narratives, as an actress confronts her ironic fear of her own voice, and tries to find out how she can reclaim not only her own voice, but also those of the women whose voices have been suppressed and distorted for centuries by male scholarship.

The show is a comical and confrontational depiction of women's struggles throughout the ages and shows how the female experience echoes through time.

Bebe Cave: Swoon

25th May, 8th June 7.30pm £10.50

Character comedian and actress Bebe Cave’s conclusion of her trilogy exploring historical female main-character-syndrome. This time it’s the Victorian era, where men wear top hats and waistcoats and ladies don’t have the vote yet. Good times! Through the lens of the pre-Raphaelite brotherhood, some very silly men who were very good at painting, and their most famous muses, Bebe skewers pretentious male artistry and the women they love to drown. Why are women such beautiful artistic objects, especially when they are dead, and why are the men who paint them so difficult and very much alive?

A Bottle of Something Nice

31st May 4pm £14

A Bottle of Something Nice is a poignant and relevant modern relationship story: a one person show written by Mark Jackson chronicling the life of Rey. Wrestling emotionally with the struggles of a life of promise that delivers so little. The play explores the dynamic of power and subjugation in a relationship played out against a backdrop of serial lying and hostility and a need to be loved. Insecurity, false intention, damage and the inability to be able answer the question “What is love?”. Written by British playwright Mark Jackson also known for other works such as FUFC, My Time of Life and Scarbados.
