Idealists, entrepreneurs, and fraudsters alike dress themselves for the job they want, not the job they have. Is it really as simple as stepping into the same shoes of the person you admire in order to have the life you want?
Charlie finds herself in two worlds: a tiny hospital room and a huge galaxy of self-help and internet inspiration. She is drawn under the spell of internet influencers and gurus who offer her insights into their worlds. Like these internet idols, Charlie invents an Instagram character – Cha Cha – who becomes a star by merely pretending that she already is one.
Can Cha Cha help Charlie? How much time does she have left and what will she do with it? In no there there, Autopoetics brings the internet to life to help Charlie ask, who can really teach her how to set herself free?
Following their production of Provenance in 2018, Autopoetics bring the premiere of no there there to NAFA’s Studio Theatre 13-15 June 2024. Autopoetics are an international, Singapore-based theatre collective who specialise in devising collaboratively created theatre that is rich in physically created imagery.
