Will you take a lie detector test in front of an audience? Award-winning social experiment TRUTHMACHINE uses biometric sensors and live voting systems to seek out truth in a world of fake news and alternative facts. Put yourself to the test in this adventurous, intimate melding of bold new technology with live performance, inspired by art history and the true crime genre. A volunteer from the audience has their heart rate, breathing patterns and skin responses measured by a polygraph, and converted into an intricate symphony of light and sound, while the interrogator probes for the truth, whatever that may be.

Infrequent coarse language and adult themes. Recommended for ages 18+
Complete lockout – latecomers will not be admitted.
