Hungry Johannes

"There is a level to which hunger will drive you."

Johannes is a fat gay thirty-something Londoner trying to diet his way into romantic success. He didn't really reckon with the cost of confronting his hunger. Or a mediaeval cannibalistic witch.

Inspired by Hansel & Gretel and the stories of the disordered eating community, this chaotic, messy solo show rings a warning bell amidst the sweet scent of GLP-1s in the air and celebrities shrinking before our eyes: Those who mess with hunger do so at their peril.

Also there'll be free doughnuts.
