Test Pilots is an interactive, branching narrative show that places participants in a fake TV studio as a “test audience” for new shows (and in some cases, one or more audience members may even be “cast” in a TV show we’re about to “film”). Throughout the show, audience members use remote controls to vote on script decisions, measure their sentiment, or otherwise interact with the show in a way that actually affects how things play out. Whether it’s a 1950s husband/wife sitcom, a sci-fi space exploration drama, or a children’s puppet show, you’ll start by laughing along at a satirical skewering of a classic TV genre, and end with an unnerving examination of what our entertainment media says about society and about you.
[run time approx. 60min. show contains flashing lights, fog machine, challenging themes, and both fake and real filming]
