Big Mother - Theatre
From scoop to scandal, when journalists disturb... And what if fiction was not so far from reality? Between theatre and cinema, this show borrows the codes of investigative journalism to better reveal the invisible workings of mass manipulation.
The story follows Julia Robinson, a journalist at New York Investigation, whose life is turned upside down when she believes she recognizes her partner, who died four years earlier, sitting in the dock of a trial. Behind this intimate mystery lies a sprawling investigation that uncovers the ramifications of a political scandal of unprecedented magnitude. Algorithms, fake news, widespread surveillance: the mechanics of modern oppression are at work.
But in a world where the virtual and the real are intertwined, where deception is common and social networks dictate our lives, how can we separate truth from falsehood? And what if the most insidious threat comes from where we least expect it: ourselves?
In Big Mother, Mélody Mourey offers a thrilling dive into the troubled side of our digital democracies. Mélody Mourey, a rising figure in contemporary theatre, confirms her talent for exploring the burning issues of our times through accessible and deeply human theatre, signing a suspenseful politico-journalistic thriller that immerses the audience in a gripping investigation, blending suspense, twists and reflection on the excesses of Big Data.
