Flip!

Available for over a year

Recorded at the Soundhouse with direction from Milli Bhatia and featuring Cassie Clare, Ronkẹ Adékọluẹ́jọ́, Tia Bannon, Pearl Mackie and Diana Yekinni in the cast, FLIP! has been adapted by Racheal Ofori from her stage play of the same name. Meet Carleen and Crystal, influencers with cultural commentary that will have you in stitches! Love them or hate them, there’s no stopping their fast-growing online following. Carleen has her reservations about their cyber personas, but she would follow Crystal anywhere - even to FLIP!, the new social media giant that has everyone hooked. For Carleen and Crystal, FLIP! is the answer to everything they’ve ever dreamed of. But at what cost? This sharp satire asks how we can live our best authentic lives in a world of algorithms intent on proving just how disposable we all are.
