ABOUT

THE EPICENE BUTCHER:
Stories conceived by Jemma Kahn and Gwydion Beynon, Performed by Jemma Kahn. Written by John Trengove

Critics praise for The Epicene Butcher 
“Fabulous gustatory delights, erotic pleasure… moral horror that ultimately will leave you wrenched and enthused and wishing for more.” – Robyn Sassen, Artslink

“An hysterical fusion of English and Japanese that drifts into bouts of pure poetry.” – Hailey Gaunt, Mail &Guardian

“It showed us what theatre is about in its absolute essence” – Amsterdam Fringe Jury

This week The Epicene Butcher & Other Stories For Consenting Adults returns to Joburg’s POP Art by popular demand. It’s fresh from gently violating the Amsterdam Fringe Festival, where it won both the Critics’ Choice and Best Foreign Production awards. Disclosure: being an illustrator of one of the stories, I’m a partisan source, but the show has bewitched many disinterested people.
