About Nonstop - Untapped Award Winner 2025
Pigs Fly Easy Ryan is a performance art show by Nonstop, playing at Iron Belly. Billed as an aviation bimbofication transubstantiation ritual for audiences aged 18 and over, two crash fetishists illegally impersonate flight attendants to board a plane and pursue their ultimate fantasy of total destruction. The show blends erotic absurdism with sharp commentary on climate collapse and rising global fascism — a piece that dares audiences to laugh, cry and feel something in the face of everything falling apart.
Why see this show?
Wildly provocative and darkly funny, this show straps absurdist performance art to a commentary on climate and fascism. If you want theatre that refuses to behave, Nonstop delivers exactly that. Strictly for adult audiences.
