Synopsis:
Written in 1921, taking place in 2000 and beyond, R.U.R. – Rossum’s Universal Robots tells the cautionary story of a factory that mass-produces artificial people called “Robots” to serve humanity. Initially a triumph of science and industry, the Robots eventually revolt, leading to the extinction of nearly all humankind. What happens when Robots / AI take over the world?
The production staff includes Costume design by Charlie Pettus, Scene design by James Means, Lighting and Sound design by Eddie McIntyre.
R.U.R. – Rossum’s Universal Robots is written by Karel Čapek and directed by Kris LaMorte. The production will be performed by students, faculty, and alumni from Delgado’s Theatre Program.
