New York City
James Graham and Josie Rourke cocreated the new play, which is presented by the Public and the Donmar Warehouse.
Daniel Radcliffe and the cast of James Graham and Josie Rourke's Privacy celebrated their opening night at the Public Theater on July 18. The drama, written by Graham and directed by Rourke, is presented by the Public and London's Donmar Warehouse.
Inspired by the revelations of Edward Snowden, Privacy explores our complicated relationship with technology and data through the funny and heart-breaking travails of a lonely man (Radcliffe) who arrives in the city to figure out how to like, tag, and share his life without giving it all away. The play uncovers what our technological choices reveal about who we are, what we want, and who's keeping track of it all.
Joining Radcliffe are De'Adre Aziza (Passing Strange), Raffi Barsoumian (Pericles), Michael Countryman (Boardwalk Empire), Rachel Dratch (Ripcord), and Reg Rogers (You Can't Take It With You), playing an ensemble of real-life, high-profile politicians, journalists, and technologists who have all contributed exclusively to the show.
