Theatre-makers, accessibility specialists, and legal voices map where the tools genuinely help, where the red lines sit, and what a thoughtful adoption path looks like for a sector that still defines itself by human presence in a shared room. Cutting through the hype, the panel examines where AI tools genuinely serve the performing arts — and where the boundaries lie.
