“I shanked him.
D’ya hear what I am saying?
I shanked him”

Chickenshed’s explosive dance theatre company turns its attention to the proliferation of knife crime amongst young people. Using words, movement and projection alongside a contemporary score of hip-hop and dance music, Crime of the Century packs a frightening punch.

“Emotive and shocking, Chickenshed Theatre’s Crime of the Century is a raw and brutal study of the social engineering that affects so many young people today.” Edinburgh Evening News

“If the twenty first century will be remembered as the time we let our children kill each other, Chickenshed will be remembered as the theatre company who had the guts to ask how and why.” Time Out ****
