FISH EYE by Daniel Jamieson
by Theatre Alibitheatre, comedy
A dark comedy about nosiness gone wild...
about the production
Someone's pinched Pam’s Elizabethan sideboard. So she signs up for her local Neighbourhood Watch. With the aid of her nephew who works in security, she swiftly graduates from curtain twitching to spy cameras hidden in hand-knitted novelties. But what Pam unearths only confirms what she already suspects - that everyone around her is a thief, a pervert or a terrorist and that they are all on the verge of heinous crimes… A sideways look at how the relentless monitoring, collecting and hacking of every inch of our lives has run completely out of control.

“Falling deals fearlessly with the darkness of real people’s lives"
“An impressive parachuting of the audience into quickly assembled worlds and characters you care about instantly, buffeted by questions that are delicately, tenderly explored. The themes in the show are hefty. But as always with this company the telling is an inventive delight” (Goucher's War)
" Cobbo casts a considerable spell"
