Bruntwood winner Phil Porter’s rom-com for the digital age stars Philosophy Tube star and Broadway World award winner Abigail Thorn alongside Stage Debut Award nominee Joe Pitts.
| Metal Rabbit Productions are delighted to announce the cast and creative team for the first major revival of Phil Porter’s Blink, running at King’s Head Theatre from 19 February – 22 March. The two-hander explores themes of voyeurism and parasocial relationships, and of watching and being watched, updated for an age of livestreams, video doorbells, and online stalking. The production stars House of the Dragon and Star Wars: Acolyte star and creator of Philosophy Tube Abigail Thorn, who won the Broadway World awards for Best Actress and Best New Production for her play The Prince at Southwark Playhouse in 2022, alongside Stage Debut Award nominee Joe Pitts (Spring Awakening, Almeida; The Da Vinci Code, Mercury Theatre; The Wind and the Rain, Finborough). Abigail Thorn said: “I’m thrilled to be taking on this role! Sophie is a very different role than those I’ve played in the last few years in House of the Dragon and Star Wars. The play is ripe for a revival, Simon is a fantastic director, and the King’s Head has programmed some amazing work recently. I can’t wait to get started!” Sofi Berenger, producer for Metal Rabbit Productions and CEO of King’s Head Theatre said: “We’re delighted to announce Abigail Thorn and Joe Pitts in Blink, a play that exemplifies the kind of intimate, actor-led storytelling the King’s Head champions. Phil Porter’s writing is precise and emotionally exacting, and this is a piece that relies entirely on performance rather than spectacle. Abigail and Joe are both artists who understand that kind of detail, and we’re excited to see them bring this quietly powerful two-hander to life in our space.” Blink is produced by Metal Rabbit Productions (Boy Parts, Radiant Vermin, Cuckoo, Soho Theatre; The Prince, Southwark Playhouse; The Misandrist, Arcola Theatre; We’re Staying Right Here, Park Theatre), and directed by Simon Paris (…Earnest?, Edinburgh Fringe & UK Tour). Phil Porter is a British playwright whose other work includes The Lavender Hill Mob starring Miles Jupp, The Boy With Two Hearts (National Theatre) and Olivier award nominated The Miser (West End). Blink was originally commissioned by Soho Theatre, and premiered at the Traverse Theatre with Fringe First winning company Nabokov in 2012. The creative team includes Designer Emily Bestow (Stalled, King’s Head Theatre; Pop Off Michaelangelo, Underbelly Boulevard; Dick Whittington, Greenwich Theatre), Lighting Designer Peter Small (Baby Reindeer, Bush Theatre; Roam, West End; Kathy & Stella Solve a Murder, Edinburgh Fringe, Bristol Old Vic, & West End), Sound Designer Sam Glossop (The Pitchfork Disney, King’s Head Theatre; Instructions for a Teenage Armageddon, Southwark Playhouse & West End; Leaves of Glass, Park Theatre) and Video Designer Matt Powell (Accidental Death of an Anarchist, West End; Ride, Southwark Playhouse, Leicester Curve, & US; Brace Brace, Royal Court). They will be joined by Elsie O’Rourke as Stage Manager, Daniel Steward as Production Manager, and General Manager James Quaife. |

Sky presents the Isle of Wight Festival has bolstered its 2026 lineup with a wave of new additions including Two Door Cinema Club, Joel Corry, Rose Gray, Perrie, The K’s, Ash, Alessi Rose and more. Tickets to the iconic event are available now through isleofwightfestival.com.
The other acts announced today are Hot Dub Time Machine, The Twilight Sad, Voilà, Chloe Qisha, Maxïmo Park, Good Neighbours, Freddie Halkon and Elvana, joining a stellar bill that already features headliners Lewis Capaldi, Calvin Harris and The Cure.
Northern Irish indie legends Two Door Cinema Club return to the festival following a massive year of global touring. Known for their infectious guitar hooks and dance-floor fillers like ‘What You Know’ and ‘I Can Talk’, the band remains one of the most consistent and beloved live acts in the UK. Joining them are fellow countrymen Ash, celebrating over 30 years of anthemic rock hits including ‘Girl From Mars’ and ‘Shining Light’.
Bringing the party to the island is multi-BRIT Award nominated DJ and producer Joel Corry. With a string of huge hits including ‘Head & Heart’ and ‘OUT OUT’, Joel is set to deliver one of the biggest dance sets of the weekend. Also joining the party is the world’s first time-travelling dance party, Hot Dub Time Machine, who will take festival-goers on a chronological journey through the greatest hits of all time.
High-octane indie icons Maxïmo Park also join the bill. The band are currently in the midst of celebrating the 20th anniversary of their seminal debut album A Certain Trigger.
The festival also welcomes the meteoric rise of Good Neighbours. The duo, who became global sensations with their multi-platinum debut single ‘Home’, will bring their “indie-euphoric” sound to the stage.
Adding to the wave of fresh British talent, rising star Alessi Rose has been announced as well as Doncaster-born singer-songwriter Freddie Halkon.
Former Little Mix star Perrie makes her highly anticipated solo Isle of Wight Festival debut. Since launching her solo career, Perrie has captivated fans with her powerhouse vocals and hit singles ‘Forget About Us’ and ‘Tears’, proving her status as one of the UK’s premier pop vocalists.
The IOW 2026 lineup also welcomes rising indie stars The K’s, who have been selling out venues across the country and hit number 1 with last year’s album, Pretty On The Internet, and the ethereal sounds of Scottish post-punk icons The Twilight Sad.
Also included in today’s announcement are some of the most exciting new voices in music: the disco-infused pop of the BRITS’ Critics’ Choice Award shortlisted Rose Gray, LA-based duo Voilà. Rounding off the lineup additions, Elvis-fronted Nirvana tribute Elvana, whose unique high-energy show has become a festival cult favourite.
Remaining tickets for Sky presents the Isle of Wight Festival 2026 are on sale now.

Youth #Gottit View:
I just loooooved this film. If I was to review it personally, I’d have given it at least a ‘4 Stars’ as I’m a huge Naz fan and never missed a fight back in the day. Con went into this movie with very little knowlege of the boxing legend and came out really excited to meet the real man in the foyer after seeing his antics play out on screen. A must see for all die hard fans of the 90’s icon and will be very much loved by every youngster enjoying the revival of the era right now!!!
