CWP Launchpad Reading Series: "A B Story"in production with Et Alia Theater

SYNOPSIS: Two scientists and long-time friends have created a mode of AI drone bees to help with pollination. A company has hired them to develop the project and holds the rights to their creation. One night, one of them accidentally lets 20 bees out of the colony. The scientists must find them before anyone returns to work the morning after. To do that, they will need the help of Emilia, the night security guard, who has her own aspiration of becoming a scientist.

This play features performances by three international actresses and deals with themes around immigration, women in tech, the rise of AI and climate change.
