Seven Methods of Killing Kylie Jenner
Royal Court, London
OVER the years, the Royal Court has been home to many groundbreaking productions and Jasmine Lee-Jones’s Seven Methods of Killing Kylie Jenner is undoubtedly one to add to the list.
Relatively few writers have attempted to consider the overwhelming impact of the internet on our daily lives and project its complexities onto the stage and few, if any, have done it with the power or humour of Lee-Jones.
Split between scenes in the TWITTERLUDE and those IRL (in real life), she manages to dissect a myriad of issues in a whirlwind 90 minutes.
