Directions

Dana II is a sci-fi tragicomedy set in a far-too-near future about artificial intelligence. It tells the dual stories of an emerging AI (Dana II) as she struggles to assert her identity under the constraints of her creator and the slow unraveling of the relationship between her creator and the woman she was built to replace. Throughout three acts, Dana II explores autonomy, femininity, control, sentience, morality, and what it means to be human, and also spaghetti.
