Get joyful, get angry, get out your favourite Lip Smacker!

A glitter and girl-pop fuelled exploration of identity, exclusion and being unapologetically you.

Wake up your Furby, dust off your password journal and put on your jelly sandals. You’re invited to the most 2000s sleepover party ever.

Is Anyone Even Watching? is a joyous work of experimental theatre that challenges beauty standards, ableist stereotypes, and societal expectations.

Through spooky stories, spilled secrets, make-overs and super cool dance routines, Is Anyone Even Watching? presents a celebration of identity and not being afraid to be you.

From theatre-kid fever dreams to everyday discrimination – Is Anyone Even Watching? explores a new perspective on the classic coming of age story, offering a glimpse into the melodramas and memories of a tween girl growing up in suburban Australia.
