In a time of disconnect, reconnect. In a time of loss, regain. In a time of death, rebirth. What if you didn’t have to say goodbye to your loved ones just yet?

Introducing Reanicorp, a company that confronts you with your grief face to face, literally. Recently however, the company has fallen on hard times after a series of blunders, thus creating a debate over whether the project should continue.

Reanicorp tackles 3 stories of grief and loss each with their own themes of love, identity, family and ambition arising from them. We explore whether human relationships are always destined to have a happy ending, whether death should be controlled by the highest bidder and if we need death to highlight the beauty of life?

Using artificial intelligence as a narrative tool, Reanicorp is a reflection of the current debate surrounding AI and asks if we could prolong human life with an AI version of a loved one - would it be worth it? Exploring themes of life, death, grief, human relationships and the power of corporate economic power, our show takes a darkly humorous yet subtly thought-provoking approach to exploring unspoken grief and why we struggle to accept it.
