Dennis
Dennis arrives. He’s an AI chatbot. Penelope falls in love with him. So does Anna. Emily is skeptical. Robert warns her. Emily doesn’t listen.
After The Bacchae by Euripides, DENNIS is a contemporary exploration of desire, ecstasy, and the increasingly blurred boundaries between human connection and artificial intimacy.
