- Synopsis
- I have no answers. I have nothing but rage and sorrow. And so yes I built you because this is what I do. And honestly it's not that hard, you're basically a chatbot. Merril is one of Silicon Valley's leading software engineers, but her life disintegrates when her younger sister Angie vanishes on her way home from college. A year later, when the police have long abandoned their search, Merril assembles all the digital material Angie has left behind and sets about building herself a digital simulation of her sister. The resultant 'virtual Angie' offers her some solace – until, that is, it starts to reveal new details about the real Angie's disappearance…A moving exploration of the intersection of family, technology, and legacy, anthropology is the timely new play from award-winning playwright, Lauren Gunderson. This edition was published to coincide withthe world premiere at London's Hampstead Theatre, in September 2023.
