Full casting has been announced for the King’s Head Theatre revival of Phil Porter’s critically acclaimed play Blink.
Blink is playing at the King’s Head Theatre in London from 18 February to 22 March 2026.
Directed by Simon Paris (… Earnest?), the show stars award-winning actress Abigail Thorn (House of the Dragon, Star Wars: The Acolyte, Philosophy Tube) as Sophie.
Announced today, Thorn will be joined by Joe Pitts (Spring Awakening, The Da Vinci Code, The Wind and the Rain) as Jonah.
Blink is a sharply observed two-hander about seeing and being seen, reimagined in this new production for an age of livestreaming, video doorbells, and online surveillance.
Sofi Berenger, Executive Producer and CEO at the King’s Head Theatre, is producing the show through her Metal Rabbit Productions.
In Blink, Sophie has just lost a parent. So has Jonah. Sophie has just inherited quite a lot of money. So has Jonah. After a series of uncanny coincidences, the pair find themselves living on top of one another, in two small flats in Leytonstone. Then on a whim, Sophie mails Jonah a baby monitor connected to her flat. And he starts to watch her. Reading. Playing video games. Eating. Watching TV. Without ever coming face to face, something almost like love starts to bloom between them.
Blink is running at the King’s Head Theatre from 18 February to 22 March 2026.
