Is there really such a thing as privacy anymore? James Graham, whose Olivier-nominated National Theatre hit This House brilliantly exposed the workings of British politics, brings the same forensic wit and insight to this dramatic investigation of the digital age.

Privacy explores how governments and corporations collect and use our personal information, and what that means for our security, our identity and our future.
Provoked by the recent revelations of Edward Snowden, Privacy draws on interviews with journalists, politicians and analysts, and asks the audience directly: how much do we give away when we share?
