The Edit at Belvoir St Theatre

THE EDIT written and directed by Gabrielle Scawthorn at BELVOIR 25A:

“We can control what happens to you in here. But we have no control out there”

Nia and Jess want the same thing. 

Influencer Nia, wants to find her match and win the primetime reality dating hit, Match or Snatch. Producer Jess, wants to orchestrate Nia’s every move to secure a win for both of them. But who is controlling who? And what will the win cost both women? The Edit punches in on the underbelly of our guiltiest pleasure, reality television. Merging her own personal experience as a teen on reality television and her extensive interviews with reality stars from the hit podcast series “Back from Reality”, writer Gabrielle Scawthorn asks the question can we ever truly give consent, if we don’t know what we are consenting to.
