Help Me Learn

Help Me Learn is a new play in development exploring what artificial intelligence will make of our most intimate moments.

Liza is a next generation AI assistant, who is here to support you with life admin, your wellness aims and all the stresses that life brings. Let Liza take on some of the load, and get back to focusing on the important things in life.

Police officer Michael and artist Rhianne have shored themselves up in Michael’s high rise flat as the world outside gets hotter and wetter. Liza makes their lives easier but reveals things about their relationship that once said can’t be unsaid.

For fans of Black Mirror, this is a play about what happens when only the machines are watching.
