Darling, I think I'm Turning Into A Chicken

About This Event

Butterfly Eye Productions is set to present "Darling, I Think I'm Turning Into A Chicken" at The Cockpit in London on 25 August 2026. This family-friendly production offers a unique mix of dark comedy and drama, delving into the theme of generational trauma through the eyes of Florence. Suitable for all ages, this absurdist and slightly macabre piece promises to captivate audiences with its relatable storytelling and humorous performances. Tickets are priced at £21.60 for full price and £18.51 for concessions (including booking fees).

Butterfly Eye Productions’ new totally absurd and slightly horrific Extravaganza comes to Camden Fringe after its premiere at Upstairs at the Gatehouse this July. Born out of lived experiences, darkly comedic play about generational trauma and transformation, ‘Darling, I think I’m turning into a Chicken’ explores what happens when loss becomes the air a family breathes. Florence has everything she’s ever wanted: a fiancée, a thriving career, and a perfect home. But when she starts to grow feathers, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel. As the transformation worsens—and threatens to kill her—Florence discovers she’s not alone: her estranged family are changing too. To survive, she must confront the past she’s spent a lifetime avoiding. An imaginative, physical and text-led exploration of how illness is not only biological, but emotional, social and generational, asking what it takes to break cycles of inheritance—and whether healing is ever truly possible. Written and Directed by India Rose Olsen Music & Lyrics by Michael Fristot & Tess McLee
