CUTTINGS

THE HOPE THEATRE 2019

a play by Ollie George Clark

“THERE’S ACTUALLY NO SUCH A THING AS GOOD PUBLICITY, THERE’S JUST PLANNED AND UNPLANNED, AND THIS IS VERY MUCH THE LATTER”

YouTuber turned actor Arthur Moses wins an Olivier Award, and moments later goes on to drunkenly deliver the most offensive, outrageous and profanity laden speech in the ceremony’s history.

His publicists Gracelyn, Ruchi and Danica have quite a morning ahead of them.

They’ll need to apologise on his behalf all whilst fielding calls, defusing social media, stamping out print, handling the talent, licking SOLT’s wounds and if Arthur could stop posting on Instagram for a second that would be great.

CUTTINGS is a satirical look at public perceptions, fandom & fame and what it means to be ‘sorry’ in the 21st Century.
