Wonderful Wednesdays – Louise Orwin: Famehungry
FAMEHUNGRY is a one woman nose-dive into the helter-skelter world of TikTok, the attention economy, and what it’s like to live your life online. Fusing performance art and Very Real and Very Live TikTok Experiences, this show explores fame, the future and the sneaking suspicion that social media is distracting us from the apocalypse – but the catch is it happens both in a theatre, and on TikTok Live.
Made in collaboration with a famous TikToker, a Cambridge researcher, and the almighty Algorithm, join award-winning performance artist Louise Orwin and a host of TikTok Famous Faces as she asks what a future might look like if all roads lead to TikTok.
