"TRUTH & LIES" | SPACES LEFT!

SPACES AVAILABLE! This one's a little different! Unlike our other 'Thought Experiments in Pubs - Hertfordshire' events, booking for this event is via the Watford Palace Theatre box office and will be held in their wonderful '1908 cabaret' space with its own bar. Please do sign up, it's sure to be a fantastic evening. As always, you'll get the same friendly atmosphere, and a chance to meet new people and discuss interesting questions in a wonderful space. No experience is necessary. For our September event at Watford Palace Theatre, the theme is "TRUTH & LIES". We'll hear 'thought experiments' or scenarios focused on this central theme and discuss questions inspired by those scenarios. Is there such a thing as 'the truth' or is all truth subjective? Are we responsible if we tell a lie that leads to something bad happening? If lies become more prevalent what are the consequences? We run our Watford events once a month. Tickets are £8.50 (a chunk of which goes to support this fabulous local theatre). "Really enjoyable evening! The topic was interesting, playful and thought-provoking, and it led to some great conversations. The host created a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and the group was lovely. I definitely left with a broader perspective... Would happily come again." [Recent Review] What to expect We will discuss the thought experiments in small groups of four. There will be an opportunity to change groups between each thought experiment, so you’ll get the chance to connect with quite a few different people at each event. At the end of the session we’ll have a short get together as a whole group to share thoughts and ‘vote’ on a few questions, so that you can get a sense of everyone’s views. After that feel free to stay and chat with your fellow thinkers! Who should come? Everyone. No experience required. Each session is standalone and inclusive. The more perspectives, the richer the conversation. Don't worry about coming on your own, many people do. The vibe is calm and inquisitive so leave your boxing gloves at home!
