Chicken - Self-portrait of a young man for rent
T0630882015
Chicken premiered at The 2003 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, playing to packed houses and to critical acclaim, and was listed as one of the 5 best plays in the UK for 3 weeks running. Based on the best-selling memoir
Chicken - this 1-man show is the true story of a 17 year-old wide-eyed son of Seventies Suburbia. Suddenly homeless and alone in Hollywood, David allows himself to be seduced into the sex business. As a fantastic 1970s soundtrack pounds, Sterry portrays everyone from his nun/teacher to his employment counsellor/pimp, his sweet naive 17 year-old self to the love-hungry ladies who hired him. Breathtakingly honest, heartbreakingly poignant, surprisingly funny, this is theatre that is raw, smart, and universal.
