Have Your It Way

About the show

"Our impact is measured in how our creations empower people to express their individuality with strength and purpose!"

No it's not! You can't measure impact that way! That doesn't mean anything at all!

This quote featured in an email exchange Theo had with a watch company named after a nuclear bomb, it was written by a Large Language Model.

Have Your It Way is a silly, serious, unsettling piece concerned with the proliferation of bullsh*t in publicity, exacerbated by LLMs, and the meaningless language of faux-creativity, initiative, and entrepreneurialism that has crept into our daily lives. From never ending LinkedIn posts to 1,000 slide Powerpoint's, from impossible to parse emails to Amazon authors, generative slop is waging a war on meaning.

Have Your It Way is a surreal, spiralling, rapid-fire monologue that blends readings from various brand guidelines with a story of a floating orb and an orgy in a fast-food restaurant.

Suitable for haters of Ai aged 16+!

Previous praise for the writer: "Theo Moore has written the contradictions of real life into every moment of the show; how the good and the bad, the funny and disastrous, tend to sit together because life goes on even when things go wrong. Fundamentally, that is the feeling that makes this play so impactful" ★★★★ (Theatre & Tonic on Everytime We Touch at Theatre503)
