Hen and Chickens theatre & bar

Islington

Hen and Chickens is a small theatre and bar running experimental, character-driven work that doesn't fit into neat categories. It's upstairs from the bar, which means you can have a drink before or after without leaving the building. Upper Street carries a lot of theatre venues, but this one has a particular strand of programming: literary, playful, slightly off-kilter. The work here takes risks. You come to discover things that shift how you think about what theatre can actually do, not just shows that fill an evening. The schedule moves around, so check what's on before you visit. If you like work that surprises you, this is where Islington's arts scene finds some of its real edges.

Nothing on here right now. Check back soon.
