The Copies of Caryl Churchill

What's it about?

Caryl Churchill's play "Copies" explores fundamental questions about identity, individuality, and the nature of being human. Based on the absurd premise that multiple genetic duplicates of a person meet, the production explores how biogenetics and artificial intelligence challenge our self-understanding. Without making moral judgments, the play shows how technological developments spark existential debates about original and copy, human and machine.The production combines current scientific discourses with philosophical reflections and deliberately avoids simple answers. Instead, the encounter of the duplicates serves as a starting point for reflecting on the limits of what it means to be human.
