Search Party

My Son & Heir 

My Son & Heir is an anarchic celebration of the everyday heroism of parenthood, set amongst a never-ending mess of plastic, flashing-beeping, bubble-blowing chaos.

Search Party are parents, they have a son born in the same year as ‘Baby Cambridge’, and that’s where the similarities end. My Son & Heir confronts the spectacle of the ‘New Royals’ and their strategic attempts to appear just like us. In a playful examination of the relentlessness of raising children, and the guilt-ridden one-upmanship of mainstream baby culture, Search Party considered what sort of man their son and heir will become.

Search Party performed My Son & Heir in 2014's edition of Mayfest.

A Spring Festivals commission with Pulse, Watch Out and Sprint.
