The Watching

A group tune in to their regular show. Play. A period drama. Skip. A supernatural thriller. Fast forward. A mafia gang. Pause. Wait. Did that character … just … look at me? Rewind…

Reality and fantasy blur in this imaginative live performance straight from the eclectic minds of Melbourne’s emerging artists from the western suburbs. Serving you period drama, supernatural thriller and mafia noir realness, the screen comes alive on stage as over 40 young people write themselves into some of the most famous (read: outdated) Hollywood plotlines. Because, you know, life isn’t a spectator sport.

THE WATCHING is a reflection on the communal experience of viewing. It asks how art helps us reflect on the past, engage in the present and vision a future where we are all written into the story.
