What would you do if the whole world was singing along to a song about the worst night of your life?
Hannah and Max are driving to a wedding. When they get out of the car, they’re never going to speak again. 50 miles away, Alice is talking to a journalist. When the article goes to print, her life is going to change completely.
I Know I Know I Know, by Flora Wilson Brown, is a play about who we believe, who we brush under the carpet, and what happens when they claw their way out. It was inspired by the parade of headlines about famous musicians abusing their young fans, and the question of how you would react if your best friend was outed as one of them. Flora said: “Creating this show has been the culmination of years of conversations about fame, consent, and complicity. Because of this the show has been tough to write at times, but I’ve felt really supported to make bold choices, to make things knotty and difficult.”
I Know I Know I Know is DONOTALIGHT’s first production. They are a new company interested in new writing about living in the world today. DNA’s work is grounded in formal inventiveness and telling political stories through a personal lens. DNA is made up of Harry Tennison(Director) and Flora Wilson Brown. Separately, they have worked with venues such as The Ovalhouse, The Orange Tree Theatre, The Mercury, and The Harlow Playhouse. Together their work has been selected for NSDF and performed at Underbelly at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
I Know I Know I Know was selected for VAULT festival 2022 but after the festival’s cancellation will now get its premiere at Southwark Playhouse.
