Human In The Loop
A solo theatrical work about identity, collapse, memory, performance, and rebuilding meaning when reality stops making sense.
Blending autobiographical storytelling, theatrical sound design, projected media, comedy, emotional excavation, and live interaction with AI systems, the piece follows a performer navigating institutional breakdown, grief, creative reinvention, and the strange psychological terrain of trying to remain human inside increasingly fragmented systems.
The performance begins in the recognizable world of theater and personal narrative, then gradually destabilizes into something stranger, funnier, and more theatrical—where sound functions as a scene partner, technology becomes conversational, and performance itself becomes a survival mechanism.
Rather than offering easy answers about AI, trauma, or identity, the work asks:
How do we rebuild coherence after systems fail us?
How do we remain emotionally alive in an age of performance, surveillance, and fragmentation?
And what kinds of play, ritual, and storytelling might help us reconnect to each other again?
Part confessional, part theatrical experiment, and part transformation ritual, this is a performance about becoming visible after surviving disappearance.
