Know before you go. Arrive early to avoid missing the start of the show.
A whirl of comic, flights of fancy, extraordinary music and thought-provoking ideas, Thoughtifier is classic Bill Bailey.
Whether it’s with Bluetooth bouncing ‘rock balls’ or his love of gospel music, he demonstrates our human instincts for harmony, melody and rhythm to brilliant effect.
Using a plethora of instruments, screens and AI, he shows our human capabilities can transcend the pesky algorithms, there’s also real heart to the show, when he recounts his mistaken death, and his love of the natural world, with whale song, and a ballad about sentience in our crustacean friends.
With outlandish new instruments and a thread of philosophy running throughout, Thoughtifier takes all the greatest elements of a Bill Bailey show and propels them to new dizzying heights.
