The Compass is a groundbreaking, live interactive performance that explores the intersection of technology and decision-making. At the center of The Compass is a trial, determining the fate of a young person who used the app to make a life-altering decision. In this play, every show will end differently, depending on what you, the audience, decide. Join us as we navigate the question: When someone else, or something else, tells you what to do, what exactly are you responsible for?
What to Expect
- Interactive does not mean that you will be pulled onstage; however, you will participate in a group discussion moderated by an actor.
- Purchasing a ticket guarantees admission. We will let you know your seats when you arrive.
- As an audience member, you will be asked to: make decisions; persuade others of your opinion; determine the fate of those on stage; have fun and enjoy the show!
