What happens when our machines start to outsmart us? In R.U.R., Rossum’s Universal Robots by Karel Čapek, a robot-making company wants to free humans from all labor but don’t know when to shut the factory down even when things go badly awry.
Featuring inventive physical theatre couched in the electric soundscape of international composer, Mars Lasar – plug in and get supercharged with this new age, science-fiction cult classic, now updated for the new millennia!
