The Game is an operatic stage work, a dark and absurdist comedy that explores the human relationship with technology and digital culture. It blends opera with modern interactive storytelling, propelled by an experimental, narrative-driven, first-person video game.
The Game poses the eternal questions we’ve asked ourselves for millennia: What is the meaning of all this? How do I get out of this theatre? And… is that chicken giving me the eye?
