  • Trans People Are Awful - Starting Blocks fundraiser

    Tues 17 November at 7:15pm
    Tickets £100 (+ booking fee)
    Transitioning’s hard, finding the right parts is harder. In a garage in North-East Scotland, a young trans guy invites you to witness his genius in hunting cis-men for body parts.

    Tickets for this event will directly fund our Starting Blocks artist development scheme for 2027!

    Join us for a special fundraising performance of Trans People Are Awful, in aid of Camden People's Theatre's Starting Blocks artist development scheme. Ros Watt's 'blisteringly funny', sold-out, smash-hit show was first developed with us on Starting Blocks - by booking a ticket, you are directly enabling us to bring the scheme back next year and support more amazing artists like Ros.

    This performance will be followed by a discussion with past Starting Blocks artists, reflecting on the importance of the scheme and their work.


    Armed with a camera, a vivid imagination, and an axe he bought on Facebook marketplace; Boy is explaining to you his quest to complete the perfect transition. His method, (killing cis men and stealing their body parts), may be unconventional, but it does bypass NHS waiting times.

    When a routine kill goes wrong and Boy encounters something he didn't prepare for, his meticulous plan begins to unravel. Forced to confront the reality of his actions, Boy must decide how far he is truly willing to go to become himself.

    True crime cut up with dark comedy, 'Trans People are Awful' dissects identity, morality and the effects of extreme loneliness.

    A Beth Sitek, Ros Watt and Camden People's Theatre Co-Production.
