How do we come together to take decisions in the interest of our society? Five activists with intellectual disabilities organize a public meeting. Their goal: a frank and open discussion about a history we would prefer to ignore and a future that is rapidly getting out of hand. Fearless and strikingly fresh, Australia’s leading theatre company returns to Brussels for the second time with their latest creation, The Shadow Whose Prey the Hunter Becomes. The ethics of mass food production, human rights and the social impact of automation are skilfully woven into a compelling story that explores the unstable foundations on which contemporary society is built. The actors question the parameters of traditional theatre and their own perceived limitations, challenging contemporary assumptions about AI and the human mind. The result is a theatrical revelation inspired by (human) errors, misreadings and misrepresentations: an inexorable reminder that no one is self-sufficient and that we are all responsible.
