A play set in the past and the present juxtaposing the world of Byron's daughter Ada Lovelace, who invented, with Charles Babbage, the maths that led to the first computer, and the way an Artificial Intelligence machine called Ginny upsets expectations as her researcher inputs knowledge of the world today. Perfect for use with young people to encourage discussion of issues concerning Artificial Intelligence, social conventions and girls into STEM subjects.

Industry Reviews

Praise for other works "???? ...a story of human emotions, which will strike a chord with any viewer...a dark, stark story that takes you to another world. It is a perfect showcase for brilliant acting for there is no place for error." London Theatre "....Holyoake's extraordinary play is spare, uncluttered and unadorned. Its directness is deceptive, creating an immediacy and empathy which powers the drama. One of the impressive aspects of the play is what is left unsaid and unexplained, an object lesson in economical writing..." John Foster "....the play has tapped into contemporary issues surrounding technology and the distance it places between people..." Express and Echo
