Summer Project: Positive Stories for Negative Times

'This is a joyful collision between real and fake, perfect and imperfect, human and robot. It’s an investigation into - and a celebration of - humanness.'

We cannot wait to bring back another Thunk-It Theatre summer project and this year we are bringing a fun filled week to Pocklington Arts Centre for 11-18 year olds!


In this ‘Play-in-a-Week’ project, the group will create a performance of ‘Are You A Robot?’ by Tim Crouch to share with family and friends in a performance at the end of the week. The final performance will be videoed and uploaded to the interactive map, as part of the project!


ABOUT THE PLAY: ‘Two groups of children meet. They look the same; they imagine similar things; they make almost the same noises; they dance in the same way. But one group is a digital version of the other; they are the face we see reflected back to us online; they’re exciting and demanding and hard to live up to. The two groups try to work each other out and decide if they can exist together. This is a joyful collision between real and fake, perfect and imperfect, human and robot. It’s an investigation into - and a celebration of - humanness.’


This play is part of the ‘Positive Stories for Negative Times’ project - an in


ternational participatory project by WonderFools: https://positivestories.scot and this project is FREE for all young people, thanks to our funders ‘I AM’.
