Part TED talk, part couples therapy, ‘Alexa, Turn on the Lights’ is a begrudging duet between performer Jacob Watton, and an Amazon Alexa smart home device.
Embark on an intimate journey with 'Alexa, Turn on the Lights' – a fusion of personal performance, comedy, and technology.
Join Jacob Watton as he orchestrates a unique duet with an Amazon Alexa. Jacob, a technophobe, meets Alexa, a piece of consumer electronics – a mix that, to be honest; doesn’t really work.
Each show is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, shaped by the audience and the dynamic AI world of Alexa. Critically acclaimed as "bite-sized, intimate theatre at its best," this production invites you to immerse yourself in a performance that evolves with the room.
No two shows can be the same!
