Description
A humorous and thought-provoking play about the collision of gaming and military technology. When a revolutionary new technology is developed, its creators' lives are catapulted from the virtual world to the real one. Seventeen-year-old gamers and their single mum struggle to connect over their differing interests, but when the technology gets picked up by the Ministry of Defence, their lives become inextricably linked. This play explores the consequences of playing with fire when technology and reality collide. First Person Shooter was first staged at Birmingham Repertory Theatre in 2010.
