The K&R Theatre Podcast

What is this, a cross over episode?

In this episode of Man Eaters, we dive into one of the most infamous animal attacks of modern history- Travis The Chimpanzee who in 2009 maimed 55 year old Charla Nash. 

Making this episode unique, host James Chapman is playing the Chimpanzee in a play based on the life of Travis. "Trevor" by Nick Jones is produced by Knock And Run Theatre and will be staged at Newcastle Theatre Company from Jan 8-15 2022. Tickets available at www.knockandruntheatre.com
