Crime of the Century
Chickenshed
£10 | £6 Concession Buy Tickets
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. The story is based on interviews with victims, perpetrators, families, surgeons, police officers and ex-offenders.
"Emotive and shocking, Chickenshed theatre company's Crime of the Century is a raw and brutal study of the social engineering that affects so many young people today."

Nearly Dan
£10 Advance | £12 Door
Less tribute and more homage to jazz-influenced best sellers Steely Dan, Nearly Dan is saviour to the legions of Dan fans. The band's approach is faithful, though not reverential, and relaxed but as tight as their namesakes, a testament to hours of rehearsal and a great deal of talent. They return to the Met following a sell out show last year.
