Don Murphy is a proud Irish man, a hopeless ketamine addict and one of his generation’s greatest actors. He also happens to be a chicken. Across one fateful night, the feathered Oscar winner shares his star-studded story with an intimate audience - from getting his big break, to his first bird on bird sexual experience, to navigating life in the celebrity spotlight. But along the way Don will be confronted with some harsh truths about himself, chicken kind and humankind.
From the makers of Mustard (Scotsman Fringe First Winner 2019).
Winner of Filipa Bragança Award 2023 for Best solo/non-binary performer at the Edinburgh Fringe 2023, Lustrum Award 2023 and Best Performer Award Dublin Fringe 2024.
“This show where a woman plays a chicken who thinks he’s an Irishman is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.”
