Description

While some worry that AI is going to take our jobs, create our art and drive our vehicles, we embrace its powers and ask it to do exactly those things. In the end, the AI is what we teach it to be… right? In our show, we imagine the future where we entrust our fate to a digital collaborator and a pilot of the first AI-rlines taking its audience on a test flight to find soulmates.

Such a fun show and terrific use of new technologies in an audience participation setting. Grab a drink and get ready to (not) find your soulmate!

Ah! As I write this, you only have two more opportunities to see this show! Run, don't walk. SOULMATES is a truly unique piece of interactive theater that is sure to give you a welcome change of pace from the many stand-up and one-person shows that Fringe is so dominated by.

The conceit is that you are aboard the first-ever AI-powered international flight, from Edinburgh to New York. Additionally, your "platonic soulmate" is also onboard the flight, and by filling out a simple questionnaire before boarding, the plane's AI will find your match and connect you before you land.

Quite fun, and extremely impressive how well the AI works. Highly recommend

A unique shared experience that (gently) forces you to interact with and discover the things that connect all of us! A novel and exciting concept of interacting with both the fellow "passengers" and the AI that is guaranteed to generate interesting and often unexpected outcomes. Get involved and enjoy it!
