Language of Joe and Cho

Theatre Dockers

"What happens when the mask you wear online becomes the person you can’t escape in real life?"

"And What happens your online persona causes a collision in your physical reality and your family?"

"What are you going to do if that triggers the issues you've been ignoring for years?"

Cho is a university student living a double life. To his father in South Korea, he is a dedicated son on the verge of graduation. To his thousands of anonymous subscribers, he is a rising far-right provocateur.

With his father arriving in London for their first meeting in 15 years, Cho’s carefully curated world begins to fracture. When a "doxing" attack exposes his identity during a live stream, the digital vitriol spills into the physical world. Stalked, threatened, and cornered, Cho must navigate a collapsing web of lies before his father discovers the truth.

Blending autobiographical elements with a gripping fictional narrative, Language of Joe and Cho is an intense one-actor exploration of digital radicalisation, familial duty, and the violent collision between our online personas and physical reality.
