King's Head Theatre
First commissioned by Soho Theatre, BLINK is a bittersweet rom-com for the digital age. But ten years on from its original run, in a world of livestreams, doorbell cams, vlogging, and online stalking, Porter’s play takes on a new meaning. When our every move is recorded and broadcast online, what does it really mean for someone to see you?
This is a story about seeing and being seen. About watching and being watched. And about love.
Sophie has just lost a parent. So has Jonah. Sophie has just inherited quite a lot of money. So has Jonah. After a series of uncanny coincidences, the pair find themselves living on top of one another, in two small flats in Leytonstone. Then on a whim, Sophie mails Jonah a baby monitor connected to her flat. And he starts to watch her. Reading. Playing video games. Eating. Watching TV. Without ever coming face to face, something almost like love starts to bloom between them.
Award-winning company Metal Rabbit Productions (Boy Parts, Radiant Vermin, Soho Theatre; The Prince, Southwark Playhouse) present the first major London revival since the original Traverse Theatre production, starring Broadway World Awards Best Actress Abigail Thorn (PhilosophyTube, House of the Dragon, Star Wars: The Acolate) alongside Stage Debut Award nominee Joe Pitts (Spring Awakening, Almeida; The Da Vinci Code, Mercury Theatre; The Wind and the Rain, Finborough), and directed by Simon Paris (…Earnest?, UK Tour).
