Everything is really OK, I think. But I feel disconnected\u2026\u201d In this scenic experiment, a lonely actor enters into dialogue with a digital counterpart and, in doing so, falls deeper and deeper into a rabbit hole made up of virtual closeness and real distance. The production opens up a stage for the struggle to achieve real connections in a digital age. Elena Sofie B\u00f6hler completed her studies in visual theater and puppetry at the Hochschule f\u00fcr Musik und Darstellende K\u00fcnste Stuttgart (the University of Music and the Performing Arts Stuttgart) in 2024 with Asking for a Friend. In her Bachelor\u2019s project, she examines friendships with chatbots and asks what changes in a society in which relationships with AIs become an everyday thing.
