So why is the chicken still crossing the sea? The Konstantin Projekt draws on Eastern European folk music, fairytale, art and storytelling traditions to offer new perspectives on the intertwined history of chickens and people – the experience of migration from a woman’s (and a chicken’s!) point of view.

A contemporary song cycle alive with music, puppetry, imagery and laced with Grandmother Babcia’s stories, the adventures of Konstantin the Rooster reminds us of past triumphs and disasters, prompting us to look with hope and humour towards an uncertain future.
