Mindsplaining: Mind Reading Without the Bulls**t
In this fast-paced, mind-twisting performance, Joel Bentley (UK) will gaslight you into believing that he can read minds. With humour and a self deprecating personality that comes from being a white British man trying to make up for the sins of colonialism, Joel exposes how easily we’re manipulated by systemic algorithms, misinformation and each other. Phones, fake bunnies, and your own choices are part of the act, as Joel reveals just how predictable we are. Playful and thought-provoking, this is interactive theatre that will leave you questioning who’s in control, and how much of your behaviour is truly your own. This is Mind Reading without the bulls**t.
