Time: the not-so-distant future. Space: a conference amongst AI.
Biological life is extinct. One organism has the power to bring it all back. The choice is yours.
From Psychonaut Theatre, The W.I.G. of Life: A Conference is a witty and thought-provoking look into human history and our collective responsibility towards nature and ourselves. In this absurd, laugh-out-loud investigation of humanity’s impact through time, three performers as AI bots guide you on an interactive journey through changing moral codes and futuristic visuals. Featuring dance, comedy, puppetry and TV this innovative tour de force invites you to put on your chosen avatar, confront your very own preconceptions, question the world as you know it, and ultimately, make the final decision on biological life.

"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
