Pigeon Fool by Counterpilot

In a world where robots are becoming more human and humans are becoming more robotic, what does it take to truly declare our own humanness – and will anyone believe you?

The earliest known robot was a steam-powered pigeon created in 400BC. It was said to have been successful because it fooled the birds to believe it was one of their own. Since the days of the steam-powered pigeon, our robots have become increasingly human. The birds were fooled – are we?

Pigeon Fool, created by Counterpilot, is a theatrical Turing Test meets game show, exploring humanness in the midst of the AI revolution.

Developed in collaboration with local AI experts at Soulbotix, this new interactive tabletop theatre work blends cunning algorithms and virtual beings, to put its audience to the test.

Due to shifts in venue availability, there have been changes to session times and pricing for Pigeon Fool, which are current on the website and ticketing page. Tickets are FREE, but registrations are essential.
