News Story
The Royal Court Theatre today announces the full cast and creative team for the World Premiere production of Are You Watching? by Georgie Dettmer.
Georgie will be making her professional playwriting debut with this world premiere, Jess Edwards (Conversations After Sex) joins her as the director. The cast includes Kosar Ali (Rocks, BIFA winner), Billy Bolt (Parliament Square), Abby McCann (Aether), Lucy McCormick (Cowbois, Dublin Fringe Best Performer Award-winner), Maimuna Memon (Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812, Olivier Award-winner), and Nicholas Rowe (The Hack).
Intertwining our consumption of, and attitudes towards, porn with the emergence of deepfakes and increasing violence against women, Are You Watching? follows a journalist wired to a machine and a mother whose grief is sold for clicks. Are You Watching? asks audiences to consider when the lines blur between entertainment and abuse; asking who is complicit and who is, ultimately, in control.
The production runs at the Royal Court from Friday 29 May to Saturday 4 July 2026, with press night on Thursday 4 June 2026.
