Minnesbyrån is an experiment on what an interactive and digital theatre piece could look like. In the work, reality and fantasy are woven together on an imagined ferry trip where the participant can decide how the story takes place. The piece is performed by a chatbot on Facebook Messenger, and the interaction takes place between a person and a computer program.
Minnesbyrån was developed in connection with Labbet r.f.’s residence playwright program.
