WILL (Weirdly Intelligent Language Learner) was designed as a chatterbot – a piece of language learning software that can converse with a human. He was never meant to be alive.

WILL resides on a beat-up, 2003 era desktop computer (complete with CRT monitor) running Windows XP. His only window to the outside world is a qwerty keyboard, through which people can converse with him via a simple command prompt.

WILL has been waiting for nearly 15 years. Waiting to be born.

Parabolic Theatre are a Croydon based immersive theatre company who've been making highly acclaimed work for the past 8 years. They are currently finalists for an Offie (Off West End Theatre Awards) for Crisis? What Crisis? which was commissioned by Croydonites and premiered in the festival in 2019. 


What the press said about Crisis? What Crisis?:

"As madly farcical as The Thick of It...a memorable and riveting piece of theatre" The Daily Telegraph *****

"Ambitious, timely, and emotionally satisfying" The Stage *****

"As far as immersive theatre goes, Crisis? What Crisis? is a landslide victory" The Spy In The Stalls *****
