ROSSUM’S UNIVERSAL ROBOTS (R.U.R.)by Karel Čapek
directed by Blanche Case and Luyuan Nathan

R.U.R. Corporation dreams of a future where no human needs to work and everything is affordable, thanks to the labor of robots. Helena dreams of improving conditions for the robots and treating them like people. What do the robots dream – and can humans survive that dream becoming reality? A century after it debuted the term “robot”, Karel Čapek’s play comes to the stage in a new age of artificial intelligence and questions about what makes us human.
