monolog 3

Venue: Chickenshed
Chase Side,
Southgate,
N14 4PE,
United Kingdom,
‘The last time I went to Chickenshed, I saw a performance featuring a cast of hundreds. It says much for the breadth of work being staged at this essential venue that it can also grip the attention of its largely young audience with just a single performer on a sparse stage.’
4**** The Stage (monolog 2, 2019)
Chickenshed’s season of theatrical monologues returns to our Studio Theatre. Drawn from a diverse range of people and voices, expect the unexpected as we again present a uniquely varied programme, demonstrating the versatility of this most simple and yet versatile theatrical form.
Further details on performances coming soon.
