“These robots can’t feel, but we feel for them …”
– Kate Darling, The New Breed: What Our History with Animals Reveals about Our Future with Robots (Henry Colt & Co 2021) 

The Companion is a private encounter between one audience member and a robotic dog. In the performance, the robot entices the human participant into different negotiations, interactions, and play. The encounter harnesses our innate curiosity and empathy towards all moving beings. What kind of agency are we willing to embrace? Are we ready to surrender to and trust a non-human companion?
