Description

Big Axe. Big Muscles. Big Existential Horror.

A real man. A Bro’s Bro. A macho & Cool man who chops wood. Because chopping wood is what real men do. The world is burning, the birds are gone, and the only solution? More chopping.

But no matter how much wood is split, it’s never enough. The brain won’t shut up. The cracks start to show. And if the chopping stops… then what?

CHOP is a violently stupid and stupidly violent deep dive into fragile egos, environmental collapse, and the absurdity of existence. Expect big laughs, real danger, and at least one existential crisis (probably yours).

Arts Council Ireland, The Visual Carlow, Dublin Fringe Festival

Duration: 50mins

Age Guidance: 14+

Content warning: contains some swearing and partial nudity (and a lot of chopped wood)
