Amiot Hills is pregnant with the Antichrist, and they’re not sure what to do next. Equal parts silly and horrifying, join them for an hour of high camp body horror exploring transness, fear of pregnancy and shame. Combining object theatre and cabaret, Amiot Hills (***** ‘Physical. Visceral. Ecstatic.’ - The Tab) tracks an imagined journey of being pregnant with the spawn of Satan, and explores exactly why the idea of pregnancy as a trans person can feel like the end of the fucking world.
ANTICHRIST revels in the glory of reclaimed monstrosity. Hills walks the line between the authentic, bizarre, and riotous in an hour long satanic panic craze. Inspired by all the classic horror tropes, from the naff to the downright terrifying, hilarity and horror combine in a truly visceral experience. Going from shame to monstrous empowerment, ANTICHRIST is a ritualistic queer celebration of fear without shame, and a love letter to all of the monsters we hide within ourselves.
Amiot Hills is a theatre-maker, puppeteer and performer who makes work exploring alienation and bodily experiences as a trans person. They have worked on multiple professional productions as a performer and deviser and developed their own work at Scratch and Cabaret nights across London and Brighton.
