Blink

Blink is a story about seeing and being seen. About watching and being watched. And about love. After a series of uncanny coincidences, Sophie mails Jonah a baby monitor connected to her flat. And he starts to watch her. Blink is a bittersweet rom-com for the digital age.

Blink stars Broadway World award-winner, actress and playwright Abigail Thorn, creator of Philosophy Tube, and who recently featured in HBO’S Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon and Star Wars: The Acolyte.

Blink marks director Simon Paris’ second collaboration with Thorn.

Bruntwood Prize winner Phil Porter’s Blink is a two-hander that explores themes of seeing and being seen, updated for an age of livestreams, video doorbells, and online stalking.

This new take on Blink is produced by Metal Rabbit Productions (Boy Parts, Radiant Vermin, Cuckoo, Soho Theatre; The Prince, Southwark Playhouse; The Misandrist, Arcola Theatre; We’re Staying Right Here, Park Theatre) and directed by Simon Paris (…Earnest? Edinburgh Fringe & UK Tour).

Blink runs from 19 Feb - 22 Mar. Further casting to be announced.
