The (curious case of the) Watson Intelligence
by Madeleine George
*FINALIST FOR THE PULITZER PRIZE IN DRAMA, Gassner Award Winner
Directed by Doug Schutte. Featuring Ryan Watson, April Singer, and Doug Schutte
Take a hilarious--and inspiring--trek through time with Watsons of all sorts: Sherlock's Watson, Graham Bell's Watson, IBM's Watson, and more! Watson: trusty sidekick to Sherlock Holmes; loyal engineer who built Bell’s first telephone; unstoppable super-computer that became reigning Jeopardy! champ; amiable techno-dweeb who, in the present day, is just looking for love. These four constant companions become one in this brilliantly witty, time-jumping, loving tribute (and cautionary tale) dedicated to the people—and machines—upon which we all depend.
November 5-8, 12-15 (7:30 PM)

“This is the best play I’ve come across since Sam Hunter’s ‘A Bright New Boise.’ And that’s saying something,” says Executive Artistic Director Doug Schutte. “I’m beyond excited to get to bring this play to life here in Louisville.”
