Description
Alone in his miserable bedsit in a busy, bustling metropolis, Dante’s only companion is a house robot named She-bot. His girlfriend has left for Japan to disconnect from technology and live an older, simpler way of being. Dante is lost. Trapped in an unfulfilling job he hates, he embraces escapism by writing a film. As the screenplay emerges, we join a Spanish knight on a quest alongside his French squire, battling monsters and travelling epic landscapes. Gradually, Dante’s worlds begin to merge, overlap and intertwine around him.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Really fucking splendid. Absolutely one of the best things we saw at the fringe.

Really enjoyed this. A great sci-fi premise, combined with the story of a Romantic escaping an increasingly intrusive, mechanised world. Thought-provoking, literate, funny and touching.

This is a brilliant example of what's great about the Fringe. It's theatre, it's social commentary, it's witty, it's physical. Very much a tale for our times with some tales of the 17th century thrown in. And yes, that's an air fryer.
