Project Origins
Semi-Automatic SmokeShow was first developed in 2024 as part of the MA Acting Creative Project at Mountview, and has since grown into a genre-defying political satire that’s both hilarious and horrifying. The piece explores the dark irony of a woman caught in the very system she’s helping to sell, trapped between influencer culture and authoritarian collapse.
