Deep fakes. Dick pics. Disappointed parents.
God it’s good to be a girl. Sam is a young star thrust into the public eye,
facing scandal in the media, unrelenting contractual obligations and an
agent who’s a complete rhymes with runt. Forced into a fake relationship
with her co-star to promote a new film, she can barely keep track of what’s
real. The eyes of the world are on her, but she just can’t leave her hotel
room. The fans tell her she’s everything, so why does she feel like nothing?
A searing analysis of Internet culture and our morbid fascination with
celebrity, Beautiful Nothing depicts a girl at the edge of adulthood,
prematurely reckoning with getting sexualised by the media and being both
loved and hated by millions of strangers online. This show discusses what it
means to come of age under scrutiny and judgement, and questions
whether authenticity is possible in the Internet age.
"Companies like us genuinely would not be making theatre if it was not for the ability of CPT and its team to identify artists who are worth taking a chance on."
