Hotel Tranquille (WOW-EFFECT)
September 21, 2024 @ 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm
€7.5
Our sister community WOW-EFFECT Theater comes to Apeldoorn with their play Hotel Tranquille. Join us on 21 September for a fun afternoon with a touch of futuristic vibes.
About Hotel Tranquille
12 June 2040 starts as just another day at Hotel Tranquille. The staff Jessie, Felix, and Anna are waiting for instructions on their tasks for the day from the hotel’s AI supervisor PAL, three teens Marc, Stella, and Adrien are sitting in the lobby, fully immersed into their virtual life on the SimPlanet, 70-year-old Justiine is in her room enjoying an anniversary with her late husband Rohit as their 30 year old selves, and the NeuraTalk regional representative Derin is going over documentation about PAL’s latest system upgrade in the hotel gardens.
That is until PAL informs everyone of a virus attack targeting their brain chips and that Hotel Tranquille needs to go into quarantine with no connection to virtual life and communication!
With colorful characters, their avatars in the virtual world, the hotel’s AI supervisor PAL, and plenty of chaos, Hotel Tranquille is a play that addresses the impact of technology in our daily lives and what it means to be “human” in a fun way. It is also inspired by the Arctic Monkeys album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, which has a jazz lounge sound and science fiction themed lyrics that make a perfect blend of nostalgia and futurism.
WOW-EFFECT Theater (WE)
English Theater Apeldoorn started based on the foundations of WE. Both communities have members from different countries, walks of life, and experience levels in theater and they both aim to build bridges between these diverse groups of people through the medium of art. Since 2014, WE has been the international amateur theater community of Nijmegen.
