Chauntecleer & Pertelotte

A Beasty Babel Fable

Tickets £14 / £12*

By Dougie Blaxland

Loosely based on Chaucer's Nun's Priest's Tale - an Aesop Fable style story about anthropomorphic chickens - Dougie Blaxland's Chauntecleer & Pertlotte: A Beasty Babel Fable tells the quaint but utterly absurd story of how a jilted hen exacts eye-watering revenge on a faithless cockerel.

Winner of Best New Play at Brighton Festival, this two-actor romp animates 24 human and animal characters with Chaucerian language and the nonsensical charm of Stanley Unwin and Kenneth Williams, delivering "comedic and literary gold" at breakneck speed.
