Chickenshed‘s explosive dance theatre company turns its attention to the proliferation of knife crime amongst young people.

“Emotive and shocking, Chickenshed theatre company’s Crime of the Century is a raw and brutal study of the social engineering that affects so many young people today.”Edinburgh Evening News
