The Making of Us

Synopsis

The Making of Us is the latest collaboration between theatre director Graham Eatough and visual artist Graham Fagen. It combines live performance and installation into a drama about how far we’ll go to get on in the world. The central character Jonathan begins the story as a spectator, is persuaded to become its central actor, and ends up its victim. The Making of Us explores its themes of theatricality and authority through a mixture of cinematic and documentary techniques with a leading cast of Scottish actors and renowned DoP Michael McDonough.
