Will Adamsdale: AI, AI, Oh… (or how I wrote a hit sitcom with ChatGPT but we’re not talking now)

FuelFest

— ,The Pit
Writer William Adamsdale poses with his arms crossed against a blue background. There is a pink effect around him that blurs.

Perrier Comedy and Fringe First winner Will Adamsdale presents a new autobiographical show about escape, creativity and technology.

Once upon a time a washed up London writer and technophobe went off-grid in a confused lockdown relocation… only to find that the grass ain’t always greener. 

The blank page stretched out like the endless fields. His only hope? His greatest enemy – technology.

A story of bots, writer’s block and getting away from it all.

Will Adamsdale is a Perrier Comedy and Fringe First award-winning comedian and theatre maker whose previous shows with Fuel include Jackson’s Way, The Receipt, The Human Computer, The Summer House, Jackson's Way: The London Jacksathon!, The Victorian in the Wall.

This is a work-in-progress performance as part of FuelFest, celebrating 20 years of fresh work for adventurous people by inspiring artists.
