One child. One camera. One truth.
Bub is an 11-year-old with a camera and her family is in crisis. Obsessed with documentary filmmaking, she turns her lens on the breakdown of her parents’ relationship, staging dramatised re-enactments to make sense of the chaos.
In each performance of POV, two adult actors – who have never seen the script before – join a young performer on stage. As Bub directs them to re-enact scenes from her personal life, the cast navigates tough questions about parenting, mental health and the way we communicate with kids. The story unfolds in real-time as they discover the answers alongside the audience; and Bub gets to the bottom of her mum’s erratic behavior. While the two adults fear corrupting the innocence of their child, Bub is determined to learn the truth.
As re:group’s next iteration in its series of live cinema experiences, following Coil (Mona Foma, 2022), POV, is an urgent, live documentary. It blurs the lines between personal history and performance to explore intergenerational connection and the agency of young people.
Mudlark Theatre will cast the state-wide tour of POV with incredible Tasmanian talent.
