Synopsis

It’s no secret that Declan is the university class coaster, which is why his friends refuse to partner with him on their next assignment. Out of options, Declan is forced to pair up with Claire, the new Deaf student who is everything Declan isn’t; academic, driven and fiercely proud of her identity.
Set against the backdrop of coastal university life on the south coast of England, GREEN GRASS dips into the murky waters of strained friendships, sustainability, and D/deaf identity in this coming-of-age drama.

In GAWD V. THE PEOPLE, the audience is part of the court, it’s an AI-led tribunal where humanity is on trial for the right to remain on Earth. Volunteer audience members become witnesses aided by agentic legal aids as we defend our continued existence against Nonhumans testifying against human impact. Surrounding projection environments and evolving courtroom visuals transform the space to reflect the trial as evidence accumulates. Presided over by a darkly humorous Judge, GAWD, each performance culminates with an improvised verdict on humanity's survival and what the conditional terms will be.
