Why does a world so connected leave us feeling more and more alone?
Apt Y Idos examines Millenials' bizarre relationship to communication technology, and how this impacts personal relationships and interactions with other human beings.
"...a chilling perspective on human life
... immersing the audience into a dystopian world full of disconnection, dissociation and detachment..."
- Theatreview
"We are constantly connected, yet we are alone, lonely. We seldom have any deep experience of one another."

Premiere season at Q Theatre, Auckland
9 - 12 April 2014
