R.U.R Rossum's Universal Robots

R.U.R Rossum's Universal Robots

Capitol Hill Arts Workshop
545 7th Street, SE Washington

Rossum has developed a method to create human-like robots, and a factory is built on a remote island to crank out enough robots to meet demand. Around the world, robots quickly replace humans in what are considered menial tasks: assembly lines, domestic labor, secretarial work, etc. A young woman journeys to the island to free the robots, but in her naive enthusiasm, becomes deeply embroiled in the fate of the robots, and ultimately, the fate of the human race. R.U.R. is a sci-fi melodrama before the genre existed.
