The Smartphone Orchestra
The Smartphone Orchestra
Come see the award winning show Ancestors, created by The Smartphone Orchestra, an interactive theatre group from the Netherlands!
What happens when you throw a bunch of people together and give them something completely unexpected to do? The Smartphone Orchestra creates playful, surprising and occasionally profound group experiences that help you connect – not with your screen, but with the people around you.
Your smartphone is turned into a guide, a game controller, and even a conversation starter. Before you know it, you're laughing with strangers and bonding over the weirdest thing. You’ll laugh, connect, reflect, and might just leave the room feeling like you’ve become part of something bigger.
Admission is $18. Register in advance, space is limited!

Program Details:
Ancestors, a 75-minute Interactive Journey into the Future!
In Ancestors, you and your fellow participants tell the stories of those who will come after us, stepping into a future shaped by the actions of today. Your smartphone becomes your guide, leading you through a world where the impact of climate change, technological advancements, and social challenges have taken hold. Together with your coparents, your decisions and interactions shape the narrative and influence the collective outcome of the experience.
This isn’t just a passive performance; it's an immersive, participatory journey where the audience is as much a part of the story as the content itself. As you explore these possible futures, you'll find yourself questioning your relationship with technology, society, and the planet. The unique combination of speculative fiction, interactive storytelling, and real-time decision-making will leave you with plenty to think about long after the experience ends. Will humanity find solutions to these pressing challenges? And what role will you play in shaping that future?
