About

We’re all starring in the movie of our life. Day by day, selfie after selfie, post after post. Papering over the cracks of whatever darkness lies beneath. It’s exhausting. You deserve a break.

So settle back in your seat. Bask in the glow of the big screen. Don’t worry about what’s happening down below it on stage. See the heroine smile out at you, all dewy-eyed, as the camera zooms in. And in. And in. Get set for a Lynchian ride through the anxieties of an unsettlingly ordinary woman’s existence..

Super Duper Close Up tells the story of a 21st century woman’s journey through a labyrinth of click-bait and pop cliché and via an infinite stream of frozen pouts and desperate smiles.

An explosion of live film-making, hypnotic movement and looping memoir fiction, it asks: what’s a girl to do? How is everything so perfect yet coming apart at the seams? And whose damned fault is it? Drenched in the fake light of a thousand insta-filters, Super Duper Close Up flutters its eyelids at you and howls its furious questions at the moon. And of course, at you.

Pay What You Can Afford.

Doors open 7.30pm, starts 8pm.
