Presented by Australian National Theatre Live

Is Big Brother watching you? Produced by Sydney’s Ensemble Theatre and written by Geoffrey Atherden, the creator of the ABC’s famous Mother & Son comes Liberty Equality Fraternity a laugh-out-loud parody of our surveillance society on the big screen, where Australian politics and culture are put under the microscope.

Orlagh O’Connor has never considered herself a threat to national security. So why is she under surveillance and being interrogated? In a very comedic way, Atherden tests our complacency about the State’s intelligence gathering, our impulse to share personal information with the social media world and our right to privacy. It stars Caroline Brazier from ABC’s Rake and Andy Ryan from INXS the TV series.
