On a remote volcanic island in the middle of the Atlantic, a community has lived undisturbed for centuries - until an outsider arrives ⛰️ Zinnie Harris’ award-winning play Further than the Furthest Thing, directed by Genesis Fellow, @Jen_Tang, washes ashore from 9 March
A blue-hued side view of a woman with curly hair looking up, with an overlaid image of a person in a boat rowing towards an island. Text over image reads 'Further than the Furthest Thing'.

Finally got to watch Everything Everywhere All At Once at the weekend, and for the next 2 weeks I am in a room with a talented, generous, beautiful company of ESEA performers and creatives. Feeling grateful and full. Representation fucking matters.

And thanks to @billyperrigo and TIME for covering our @youngvictheatre AI experiment too
Billy Perrigo@billyperrigo23 Aug 2021
The world's first play written and performed with an AI debuts at @youngvictheatre tonight. (It may contain racism.) I chatted to the team behind the play, with extra insights from @Abebab and @djleufer time.com/6092078/artificial-…

An AI Helped Write This Play. It May Contain Racism

'AI' is the world’s first play written and performed live with an artificial intelligence. But what do you do when the AI begins to reflect humanity’s darker side?

Emerging now from this absolute rollercoaster of a show; it’s been WILD. The thing it taught me more than anything is that while we might collaborate with machines in the future, it’s our work together with humans that makes us stronger and better 1/2 theguardian.com/stage/2021/a…

Rise of the robo-drama: Young Vic creates new play using artificial intelligence

Inspired by a Guardian article, the theatre’s surreal and spellbinding show AI is a collaboration between humans and the system GPT-3
