Watch This Presents our final 48 hour of the year… The Nineteen Eighty Four-ty Eight Hour!

In the year 1984, the state of Birmingham run by a totalitarian dictatorship known as ‘the Society’. Mass surveillance, secret police, propaganda, mind control, and indoctrination all characterise the harsh world in which Timothee Chalamet uses his forbidden diary to dream of a life of freedom. This wish for independence will lead him on a journey of rebellion, love, betrayal, rats, and just maybe a glimmer of hope. Under the Watch(this)ful eye of Big Brother, will Timothee and Nessa’s love be wiped out? What is the mysterious Christian Grey hiding? Will Tobias Funke learn to control his children? Will Philomena Cunk successfully rewrite history? Will Javert and the Thought Police finally catch Hugh Jackman? And who will step up to save the day?

Auditions will take place on Sunday 31st May 5-10pm and Monday 1st June 5-10pm. Find more information and audition extracts in our Linktree!

We hope to see you there, and if not, remember we’ll always be watching…👀
