Reviews for FREAK
A taut, raw but also warm two-hander. Jordan’s writing is vivid and punchy. Both performances are very well-judged.
★★★★ The Stage
Jordan demonstrating a tenderness to match her wry wit. Freak is a frank new play by a fresh young voice.
★★★★ A Younger Theatre
A beautifully written script and an immaculate thespian presentation ★★★★★ Mumble Theatre
One to watch out for at this year’s Fringe ★★★★ The Quotidan Times

FREAK recently opened at Assembly Festival George Square Studios at Edinburgh Festival with Theatre503 and Polly Ingham Productions. It has been very well received and has had a fantastic response.
They think I am the most beautiful thing in the world. And I don’t mind being a thing. I don’t want their respect. I want only their animal desire.

Following hotly on its heels, CHICKEN SHOP is brought to the Park Theatre by Epsilon Productions. Epsilon had huge 5 STAR success with Gary Henderson’s Skin Tight in Park Theatre’s inaugural season and CHICKEN SHOP will be directed by their Artistic Director Jemma Gross. CHICKEN SHOP is a dark and twisted coming of age story which follows Hendrix, a hapless and horny sixteen year old, who is so keen to lose his virginity that he enters a very adult world and gets far more than he bargained for.
