50 Ways To Kill a Slug

Soho Theatre, Upstairs

17th June, 20:30 (60 mins)

From £13 (plus £3 venue fees)*

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 Me, My Uncle is Not Pablo Escobar) and Dre Spisto (El Dizzy Beast, Butch 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.
