'Celebrity is a new solo work stylised as a lecture-performance combined with a filmic character narrative. It is an investigation targeting the Westernised phenomenon of celebrity, the paradox of celebrity addiction and the pandemic of celebrity worship. A potentially controversial dark comedy, it draws a wide, glittery blurred line between the factual, the fictional and the godly to examine what the existence of celebrity serves and what it dominates. Celebrity is unapologetic, charismatic, and uncensored.
