It’s the year 2084 – war is raging between man and machine. Chipetto, an odd scientist believes in the good of machines and tirelessly researches artificial intelligence. While researching, he creates a robot that is capable of feeling empathy. Pinocchio 2.0 combines a dystopic vision of the future with a fantastical examination of the story of Pinocchio, urging us to question how we deal with machines now and in the future.
Supported by the NATIONALES PERFORMANCE NETZ Guest Performance Fund for Theatre, which is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media and the Departments of Culture and Arts of the German federal state.
