About
Keep your pretty head, son, or youll lose it.
Hollywood, the 1940s. A charismatic film director auditions a young actor for a horror film whose lead has died under mysterious circumstances. As he shares tales of exploitation, broken promises, sex, cults, and the fine line between artifice and truth, it transpires there may be a more malevolent eye than that of the camera in the room.
Motion pictures might be edited to evoke emotional honesty, but facts might be strung together to paint a picture thats deceiving. On-screen horror isnt real, and real horrors happen off-screen So what exactly is happening here?
Award-winning theatre-maker Polis Loizou returns to Brighton Fringe with You Oughta Be In Pictures, an unsettling tale to fill you with dread and doubt.
AGE SUITABILITY : 16+ RUNNING TIME : 60 minutes
