Britain's What's On Event Guide
How To Kill A Chicken
Bringing the golden shores of Costa Rica to the Brighton Fringe this May, HOW TO KILL A CHICKEN follows its highly praised run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2024. This sensational coming-of-age tale follows a daring young woman embarking on her dream holiday across the Atlantic for a rollercoaster ride of love, passion, sex and self-discovery.
In this moving performance, Giulietta Tisminetzky whisks audiences away on a tropical adventure as the Protagonist lets go of inhibitions, rides the waves and finds herself entranced in a cliché sex-fueled holiday romance. This dream-like love story gradually gives way to a deeper dive into vulnerability, boundaries, and the messy complexities of human connection.
HOW TO KILL A CHICKEN is accompanied by a live music ensemble, whose evocative score (composed by Sarah Spencer) provides more than just a backdrop to the journey. Echoing a classical chorus, the powerful music scope guides the Protagonist as she confronts the painful truths she has buried. Tisminetzky’s poignant performance unveils how we choose to tell stories; it is a confronting, honest exploration of womanhood, sexual freedom, and the power of truth.
