A wild, tender, darkly funny new Australian play about legacy, care and chaos of being alive.
More detailsYour celebrity hall pass. The podcaster you’d love to grab a drink with. Your childhood crush (who may or may not be a cartoon character). You know EVERYTHING about them, and they don’t know your name.
AKA the parasocial relationship.
Parasocial is a one-man musical comedy by political satirist, niche online micro-celebrity and floppy-haired goofball Emerson Brophy. Join him as he traverses the weird, the wholesome and the downright uncomfortable realities of the one-sided relationships we have with the people we spend our lives watching.
All while resisting the urge to ask you to like, comment and subscribe. Honestly, it’s a bit of an ethical mess!
