Biography

Tara Dublin has recently become known for her one-woman web-based satirical black comedy, "Public Meltdown". The show follows the trials and tribulations of a desperately unlovable and unwanted failed radio presenter, "Tara Rocks", as she navigates through life in a state of permanent mental break down, lurching from self-made invented drama to self-made invented drama. Shot in a guerrilla fashion using limited equipment - and often encouraging members of the public to become willing (or sometimes unwilling) characters in the complex comedy - the show has managed to gain significant viral success. As a method actor of DeNiro styling, Tara has made a point of creating social media accounts for "Tara Rocks" and continues to post in character.

The National Alliance on Mental Health ("NAMI") publicly heralded the September 2016 episode, "Flipping the Bird", as an "...intense, emotional, yet compassionate exploration of what it means to live with mental illness. The wit and humor of the situation, along with her protracted battle of wits with an imaginary green frog 'Pepe' and the unnamed imaginary 'Racist Roider', successfully examines the great tragedy of uncontrolled mental illness without making it seem fake or contrived. In this episode, Tara Dublin has done more for bringing the plight of the mentally disadvantaged into the public eye than anyone else in 2016."
