50 Ways To Kill A Slug

In a pristinely manicured garden, amidst the bucolic borders, lurk two shameful pests. These horny slimeballs just want to chomp, chew, spit, live, lust and die freely in an ever more hostile home.

50 Ways To Kill A Slug is a multi-sensory celebration of slugs as the anarchic icon we’ve been waiting for: soft, unruly and disgusting. As slugs, the artists explore the slowness, silliness and sensuality needed to sustain their resistance across generations.

Joana Nastari (Fuck You Pay MeMy Uncle is Not Pablo Escobar) and Dre Spisto (El Dizzy BeastButch Princesa) are award-winning theatre makers whose love for the slug, as the ultimate underdog, has brought them together to make this ecstatic exploration of radical rest, toxic productivity and belonging.

This show is nonverbal and Joana and Dre invite audiences who would benefit from watching shows without spoken language.

With support from Arts Council England, Shape Arts and NDMAC.
