Homo Deus Frankenstein
KOPERGIETERY, KGbe, I SOLISTI & makemake produktionen
Humans and robots merge in an exciting family performance
Our modern society is changing very fast. Everything seems to be automated and digitised nowadays, even our emotions. An exciting but also alarming world in which to be young! Inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and by Goethe’s Faust, the makers create a story in which humans and robots try to become a better version of themselves. Homo Deus Frankenstein is a performance that reads and listens like a thrilling musical comic strip about today’s big questions.
