Robots by Rossum
Teaterverket Svea / Odenplan
Imagine a world where robots can perform any task a human can and more, as long as they are told what to do. A world where humans are only needed to consume and be served.
In this world, terrible things might come first, that simply can't be prevented, but afterwards, things would have no price, there would be no poverty. You would only do what you love.
Are humanity's actions predetermined? Is there only one logical way forward for artificial intelligence, or robots in this case? Join us in the factory producing robots for the whole world and see for yourself what might happen!
Robots by Rossum is an adaptation of Karel Čapek's Rossum's Universal Robots, the play that introduced the word robot to the world over a hundred years ago. Come and see a possible future version of our world that might have seemed farfetched a hundred years ago but now, is as close as ever. Or perhaps it is already here.
