Siri
The play's characters are middle class intellectuals who attend leftist lectures, give birth to children and update a new product of Apple – a self-learning speech assistant Siri, which becomes so clever that it even has its own political programme. When the love triangle has arisen between characters, Siri tries to find the best solution to it.The play is based on techno-optimistic theories of Raymond Kurzweil, inventor of speech recognition technology, who believes that artificial intelligence itself is competent to make a better future. But we don’t think so.

Mashrooms
Three people go to the forest for mushrooms and get lost deep into the alternative Russia. Hoping to find the way out, they found mass graves in the woods. Different threads of the plot are spinning around mushrooms with its sustainable rhizomatic intellect. The play avoids dramaturgical law and has no center, like a rhizome.Griby_RU.pdf
