GAWD v. The People

In GAWD v. The People, the audience is part of the court, part of an AI-led tribunal where humanity is on trial for the right to remain on Earth. Volunteer audience members become witnesses aided by virtual 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 of our continued existence will be.
