Are You Watching?

Synopsis

Porn. Deepfakes. Disappearing girls. A journalist wired to a machine. A mother’s grief sold for clicks.

As the lines blur between entertainment and abuse, technology and sex, violence and voyeurism – who’s complicit and who is in control? And are you watching?

Georgie Dettmer makes her professional playwriting debut with this world premiere. Directed by Jess Edwards (Conversations After Sex).

★★★★ ‘Unflinching… admirably unafraid… Georgie Dettmer’s reckoning with internet culture is brutally realised by director Jess Edwards’ The Guardian

★★★★ ‘A terrific debut play, wonderfully directed, and with a great, hard-working cast. As disturbing an hour of theatre as you’ll see on the London stage’ Time Out

★★★★ ‘Highly impressive… with snap, wit and rage’ Financial Times

★★★★ ‘Superbly acted… may turn out to be one of the most important plays of 2026’ WhatsOnStage

★★★★ ‘Stylishly arresting… reveals Dettmer as a writer of striking theatrical imagination’ The Stage
