(Rossum's Universal Robots) is an apocalyptic science-fiction play about robots whose revolution against their human makers leads to the possible extinction of mankind. This is a fresh adaptation of the 1923 play. R.U.R. introduced the word "robot" into the English Language, and much of modern science fiction's roots trace back to this melodrama, reviewed by the New Yorker as "murderous social satire." Here is our talented cast directed by Michael Silvia: James Callaghan: Busman Mike Collins: Marius/Radius Rafe Epstein: Servant Robot Doug Gladstone: Alquist Rita Machin: Dr. Hallemeier  Amelia McCarthy: Domin Beverly Skoll: Nana/Sulla Quinn Solace: Helena Alyssa Talanker: Dr. Gall/4th Robot Bill Wilday: Fabry/3rd Robot Hope you can join us to see what happens when a Robot revolution threatens mankind!
