This is a short play (approximately 10 minutes) to be performed by two actors, via video conferencing.
    The year is 2030. The pandemic of 2020 was only the start of our problems. Now, a much smaller human population struggles with being permanent, lifetime 'shut-ins', cared for only by AIs and robots. In this 'new normal', trying to find a romantic partner can prove slightly tricky. By getting together over video, Laura and Errol had hoped to make their long-distance love work. Now, it's all gone wrong... With the help of a non-binary AI called 'Blue' (and the timeless power of Shakespeare), might there still be time to reboot their love?Tous Droits Réservés
